This is where our journey started!
—
Well, we got here. And fairly unscathed, I might add. Apart from the fifty security checks, the twenty-mile hike at Heathrow from terminal three to terminal one and the nasty border guard that stood between us and our escape from that behemoth barracuda of an airport.
All worth it though, because we’re free! And we’re having a great time.
Last night ended up being a little too great though. As I mentioned, my husband is here on business so after my long walk I was ready to hunker down for the night while he attended a Hewlett Packard dinner.
I was relaxed and ready for bed when up popped a late, unexpected text to meet them at a pub. Okay, so our arms are made of rubber. But let’s remember for next time, more than one glass of Pinot Grigio, jet lag and no food for forty-eight hours do not bode well the morning after. Not well at all.
So, this is what we’re doing tonight.
Terribly tame and remarkably less potential for danger.
Fortunately, we managed to salvage what could have been a wasted day and went out walking for hours. We wandered the streets of Dublin meandering through beautiful parks and quaint shops. We even came across this gem of talent. My video skills are not the best and the sound doesn’t do him justice, but this guy’s voice made me stop in my tracks.
The only thing that might have enhanced today’s experience? A size three in those lovely little boots I found. But, there’s always tomorrow…
I’ll leave you with a few pics to enjoy:
Definitely the jet lag Hazy 😉

A handsome couple to be sure. Enjoy my ancestral homeland-I hope to travel there before my final days just to see if all the lore is true–all the best–Jim

Do you have Irish genes, Jim? Me too. But I was born in the North. Ireland is a beautiful, wondrous land and definitely worth the trip. :))

His voice was echoing through St. Stephen’s Green. It was so pure and clear, I could have stood there all day. In fact, I’m still not sure why I left.
