Andrew was very happy that he got to spend the day with both of his children. Keelin picked out his cake, helped blow out the candles, and open his gifts.

Terroism Tourism
We drove around Belfast looking at some of the many murals. Most of these were done after "The Troubles." From an American's perspective where today there is great tolerance for religious differences, it is very strange to think of the amount of hatred between the Catholics (Irish) who were discrimated against and Protestants (English). The Catholics experienced segregation similar to that of Blacks in America - different schools, neighborhoods, career paths, etc.
Belfast
We went to Belfast and stayed at The Europa which is managed by Andrew's friend, Jimmy. It was a very nice hotel.
Family Portrait
Andrew, Keelin, Ryker and me - our first photo together as a family. This was taken at a B&B in Omagh, Northern Ireland where Keelin lives with her mummy.
Tower of London
We stayed near the Tower of London. The weather was beautiful - clear, cool and NO rain!
London Calling!
Andrew started a new job with a firm based in London so Ryker and I toured the city. Actually, I toured and he slept most of the time.
