My sisters are here! Well, not here. Not in Scotland – both of my sisters have spent what they feel is enough time in central Scotland – instead we are getting together to explore Ireland. It started out that it was to be just my youngest sister and I; then my niece told my middle sister she had to come; then two English friends joined up. Siblings flew into Dublin, I took a ferry from Scotland to Belfast, and I picked them up at the airport. Then we drove three hours south to a little B&B in the town of Cork to meet Lindsay & Helen, only taking the wrong turn three times (well done me) and nearly running out of gas (petrol) once.
Yesterday we drove The Ring of Kerry (and when I say ‘we drove’, I mean one of the English friends did all the driving and I relaxed). What a spectacularly beautiful country! We’ve had the best time so far – and we’re only two days into the trip.
