I've been thinking about Kevin and Candyce's wedding (she changed the spelling of her name after someone horribly mispronounced it :>) and how I could attend. It's not until 2006, but I like to plan ahead, especially when it's going to be a pretty significant expense.

To that end, I signed up at a website I found through an article in today's WSJ. From that website, I found a DreamMap, which I think is pretty spiffy. You enter your city and how much you're willing to pay and it shows you some of the options available.

I fiddled around with different websites to see what the approximate cost will be, and I'd probably be best off if I could go for at least a week. If I had the funding, I'd like to spend a couple of weeks wandering around the UK. I've never been there so I should make the most of it, right? :)

So to investigate a flight to Galway, I have to wait till September. Apparently most of these website will not allow folks to check on flights over a year away. I'm looking to stay at a B&B. It'll be a 'spensive trip. The amount I'd spend would buy an awful lot of gewgaws as wedding gifts.
