What a journey this has already been.  It started out with a longing to take a short trip to Paris, and we would have been thrilled with that.  However, as our younger son heard our excitement about Paris, he very practically said, “what a waste of time to go so far, and not stay for at least two weeks”.  He also said he would love to go on a trip with us and this one would be right, as he too wanted to see parts of Europe.  And at that point Steven took over the planning of the trip, to include my passion to see Ireland, and has made this as easy as could be.  We will make a stop along the way in London, to see Stonehenge, as we missed in when we were there four years ago.

Nothing has changed in the past four years, and I still so wish there was another way to get across the ocean quickly without being so high up in the sky with just a metal framework.  But alas, the airlines again gets to take me on the scary travel, so that I can get where I want to go.

We are busy doing laundry, getting last minute prescriptions filled, trying to stay organized.  We will save another day for packing.  Maybe Monday.

Until then…………
