Heard from Jillian

I just received a call from Jillian while they are riding on the bus. She sounded very happy and said despite the rain everything is so beautiful. She said the horse and buggy ride around Lake Killarney was awesome. They were told to hold on tight so they couldn't take pictures. The food has just been ok but she really enjoyed the irish step dancing. She danced with a high school boy from a Mass. P2P group. I'm very relieved to hear that she's happy. Also, I passed along some info to her that I just received from a friend who is a P2P alumni. At the bottom of the Eiffel Tower will be many vendors who are very smooth talking con men who will try to get them to buy cheap trinkets at very high prices. I told her to either barter (which our friend says does work) or simply walk away. It's all a wonderful learning experience!
