Pictures from Ireland trip, October 2007:
In October, 2007 Change of Heart traveled to Ireland, first
simply for a vacation but we ended the vacation in Cork, Ireland at the IABS
(Irish Association of Barbershop Singers) Convention. We are pleased to have
placed 3rd in the International Women's Quartet division.
