Went to Ireland on tour with the sixteen piece Big Band that my husband Andy plays in (www.StageDoorCanteen.net). Turns out that all of Europe, including Ireland, is crazy about American Jazz music. So they did a tour there for a week,
and I was their official 
photographer. We mostly stayed in Dublin, which was a beautiful old-world city with 
majestic buildings. I was very surprised that Ireland was so wealthy as a country. I had always pictured it to be quaint little thatched cottages in poor little rural villages. But there has been a huge upswing in their country's economy (dubbed the "Celtic Tiger"), and many of the residents are becoming very wealthy. Fortunately, we went to an ancient monastery, and visited some old towns too. Here are some images from the trip.
