BON VOYAGE - DUBLIN AIRPORT, 1955


On May & TP's wedding day, following their celebratory breakfast, the happy couple made for Dublin Airport to depart on their honeymoon.  However, so long were their goodbyes at the hotel they managed to miss their flight. 

The word soon got back to the guests who were still having a fine time of it and spontaneously they got into cars, or hitched lifts and made their way out to the airport to continue the party there with May & TP.

Eventually, their rebooked flight was called and in this shot (pictured by Liam White) we see all the guests out on the viewing baclony waving a bon voyage to the the new Mrs & Mrs TP McKenna as they board their flat on the tarmac below.

Visible in this picure are TP's sister Sally far off on the left, while on the right side closest to the camera waving his top hat is May's father with daughter Alice on his left and son-in-law Eddie O'Byrne on the right.
