DOING ANYTHING THIS SATURDAY NIGHT?
JOIN US! for our first BILLY & KATO
ONLINE TRAVEL SHOW


 
Hello everyone!

Hope you are well and coping with these strange times. We especially feel for anyone working in health care, for small businesses and those without income – and all in Nova Scotia. Hopefully, we’ll be headed for better times soon, and back to having only the weather to complain about.

 

It broke our hearts to cancel our spring tours as they have become such a big part of our lives. What could be better than biking ride through colourful villages in France, or hiking along a cliff-top hike on Ireland’s Atlantic coast...and long evenings sharing delicious food and drink around the table. Now that we have had a little time on our hands, we’ve realized how fortunate our lives have been, and how much we enjoy sharing our world with like-minded travellers. Fingers are crossed that our fall tours will fly – pardon the pun. We will know better in a month.

MEANWHILE! . . . in our self-isolation bubble, we thought it would be fun to share our world with you, so decided to launch a mini-travelogue about our IRELAND. (If you have travelled with us to Ireland, there's a good chance you may be in our show.) Think travelogue meets virtual cocktail hour. Cozy up and join us for dinner – smoked salmon or Guinness stew perhaps? – alongside a pint or glass of your favourite.



EXPERIENCING IRELAND
A "show & tell" with Billy and Kato
SATURDAY MAY 2
from 5pm to about 6pm

We’ll use Zoom* (www.zoom.us) as our platform.
The chat room will be open during our presentation to share some stories. Pray that all will run smoothly!

* ZOOM is a software program that allows a 'host' (us!) to run an interactive meeting and have others (you!) join it. Use your iPad, smartphone, PC, or MAC, open a browser (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, etc.), enter ZOOM.US and click on "JOIN A MEETING." You will be asked to enter the MEETING ID which is 813 7237 6792  or simply CLICK ON THIS LINK: (no password needed)

.

Starting time is 5:00pm on SATURDAY MAY 2 – feel free to 'grab your seat' at 4:45 to ensure things are working. IF YOU CAN'T MAKE IT to the 'live show', we plan to record it and will send out a link later in the week so you can watch it, or watch it again. If we receive positive feedback from you, we'll create another one.

If you have any questions please click here to send an email with Irish Travelogue in the subject line.




P.S.
I will be posting weekly recommendations under Wine Picks on billysbestbottles.com. (Not mailed to you, so bookmark and visit when thirsty.)
Here's the latest ones in case you missed them.
