Tuosist, Ireland

For those of you wondering just where we are here, is a little map showing our location. Just follow the blue dot.

Yesterday we had a wonderful train ride from Dublin. It took about 3 1/2 hours. Here is a photo that I took out the window. I call it “Love in Modern Times”. I wish them a happy future.

Anyway, it is incredibly beautiful here. It is rugged and windy and rainy and the views are spectacular, and so far we just got to see a small part of it.

And this is just our first full day!

Last night was our first almost full day in Ireland. The plane ride was relatively uneventful. We were seated way in the back row 50, which turned out to be a blessing, as there were so few people in the back of the plane that I got to stretch out over 3 seats, and sleep through a good part of the trip.

Later in the afternoon, Kim’s sister Paige and her husband Paige took us to to downtown Dublin for an out of this world gourmet meal at a restaurant named “La Gordita”. The food, the drinks, and the company made for a great evening.

Today we will be taking the train down to Kerry where we will spend the next few weeks. I for one can’t wait to see what this next part of the adventure offers.

We got a hotel last night when we missed our 11:35 pm flight to Dublin. We did get a hotel and they were good enough to let us stay until 1:30 pm and then transport us to the Boston Airport. Our plane leaves at 11:35 pm so a wait time is about 12 hours is what we have.

It’s 8:30 pm, And it is just us and the cleaning staff. Hopefully more people will show up as departure time approach’s?

Next post should be from Ireland 🇮🇪 where I promise more artfully done photo.
