Tralee

The land of my ancestors. It feels wonderful, and I have found the church where my family attended and where my brother was baptized. And, big news, I read my first word in persian today! I have been learning the alphabet and the sounds and I pieced together this word, and checked it in a dictionary, and I was right!
On a different note, Rosie and I are so taken with Ireland, that we extended our stay by a week and plan on enjoying more of the country. It is amazing to say my name and not have to specify that indeed, Lyons is spelled with a y instead of an i. Everyone here writes it down perfectly.
