After he finished his semester we travelled around the British Isles & went for the first time to Northern Ireland. I had no idea it was so beautiful & charming & would recommend you visit the north on your next journey. It is difficult to fathom the “troubles” that existed in Belfast from our experiences.

I continue to enjoy reading your blog and just want to say that your latest entry reminds me that the best thing to pack, regardless of the length of your trip, is a positive attitude.
Whether your facing less than perfect weather or any other challenge, being positive and looking for the good, fun or interesting aspect of the situation is certainly the smartest thing to do.

It has been nearly 10 years since I had the good fortune to spend 3 weeks in Ireland (the last of which was with my daughter, who had just graduated from college–wonderful!!) and I’ve been wanting to get back with my husband ever since. This fall we will get to spend one day in Dublin and one in Belfast as stops on a transatlantic cruise. Not as much time as I’d like to spend there, but a start. Once he gets a taste of Ireland, I’m sure he’ll want to return. Keep up the great posting.

Was staying at an ancient B and B castle..cold rooms, spiral staircase to our lodging but the warmth of the hosts overcame all that. Envy them their pubs. Make you feel right at home and of course everyone there had a cousin living in the states!

But no. My mother was watching Erin O’Brien on TV just before I was born and figured it was a name that would be easy to pronounce in both English and Turkish.

Having retired at the end of last November, we are currently full-timing in our motorhome, so I guess we are not entirely “home free,” but the plan is to take time out from being on the road and travel overseas for periods of time … best of both worlds, I think.

Drove a loop starting and ending in Dublin. Some really beautiful scenes; some bad rain. Driving in Ireland was a little challenge.

This set of photos from that trip (we spent three days in London on the way back) is kind of a joking look; but there are some photos that are similar to yours on another Facebook album.

My mother was a Cunningham, Timothy, Dunn and Fitzgerald. Guess her ethnic background!

A growing audience means that more people will get the idea that they may find they can live their lives in a little different way and have more fun!
There’s a place to do that at the bottom of the entry!

Thanks,
