Old World Visitors

Last month we had the pleasure of hosting friends from... IRELAND!  My good friend Catrin (who is originally from Wales) and her new husband Len came to the U.S. for a nice long holiday and made a stop in the Old Pueblo to see us for a few days.  It was great fun having them!  While they were here we showed them around Tucson, took them to our favorite stores and restaurants for real Mexican food, to San Xavier Mission, to Nogales, Mexico, to hear Mariachi,  Matt took Len shooting guns for a real American/wild west experience, and most importantly we introduced them to American wine and taught them how to play spades!  Here are a few pics from their stay, which also happened to fall over Matt's birthday.

 What a good time!  Catrin and Len, we love you and are happy to have you anytime you're stateside!
