We had the most incredible time.
We were joined by 7 beautiful ladies who were visiting
Santa Barbara from Ireland. They got on the trolley
and sang with us. It was so thrilling. At the end they
sang their national anthem for us and they we sang ours
for them. They couldn't beleive that they were able
to be part of such an incredible American experience.
