1. When this man waited at arrivals with a Christmas tree
2. When the airport put Santa’s workshop on the arrivals board
3. When even pugs were getting into the spirit
4. And the man himself was welcoming people back
5. (Among others.)
6. When a family had this touching message for their loved one
7. When this man arrived home from Australia, dropped to one knee, and proposed to his girlfriend right there and then
8. When the airport put up this sign for returning emigrants
9. And THIS sign for people waiting
10. Plus the children’s choir, of course
11. And the little kids, waiting for their relatives in elf costumes
12. When passport control looked like this
13. When hundreds of families did this
14. And when, all through it, the Irish spirit remained unquashable.
We hope everyone coming home for Christmas has a great one. And for those who can’t, best wishes from Ireland.
