Trip to Scotland & Ireland

We leave for Scotland on Saturday (8/13). We'll be staying at the Marriott Dalmahoy Golf and Resort hotel outside of Edinburgh for a week. Our friends, Bruce and Susan are going with us. This will be their first trip to Scotland and Ireland. We leave for Ireland on 8/20 and will be staying at Marriott's Druids Glen (about 30 miles south of Dublin) for another week.

I usually pack the last 20 minutes before we leave. Drives Tim nuts. This time I'm ahead of the game. Work hasn't been so crazy and therefore I've had more time to get ready. Tim brought the suitcases in from the garage while I was out with the dogs. They start pacing when they see them. They know something is up and it doesn't look like a "condo" trip for them. He put them (the suitcases not the dogs) in the second bedroom until we are ready to start packing. When it's time to leave I'll take the dogs outside while he takes the suitcases to the car. This way they'll think it's just another day off to work when we leave.
