Well, just got back from Ireland and London too. During my trip I saw Pats and Red Sox caps, shirts and sweatshirts daily. Started in Dublin and not so surprising to see Pats/Sox gear there, but when you are in places like Cashel and Doolin and the Aran Islands and see this stuff, it really hits home how popular the teams are.
BTW - My family and I managed to get to London a day after the Picadilly Circus area car bomb, staying just down the TUBE in the Knightsbridge area. Of course, Glasgow got hit while we were in London. We caught the musical WICKED in London with a terrific cast. Flew out of Heathrow on Tuesday and my understanding is that they closed the airport after our flight left around midday due to another terror threat.
Good to be back in the states, but I'll be traveling again in late July/early August to visit my real home, Massachusetts and NH. Really looking forward to that trip.
