TRAVEL IRELAND

Tommy had just returned from a Stanford orchestra trip to China and the family all travelled to Ireland to explore the Casey roots.  After a 28 hour flight they arrive in Kilkenny for a week in a timeshare at Knocktopher Abbey, a 13th century castle conversion. They went to Thomastown where they spent pub time listening to Irish music and tasting the Guiness. They made side trips to Waterford and toured the crystal factory before it went bankrupt.
