arrived in Dublin

so i made it to dublin. i am stopping here for a few days and to bring in the new year before i head on to Switzerland. Pete and Curt decided to come along, and i am so very glad to have them here. we have certainly enjoyed ourselves thus far...

first a flight to NYC. then a layover... we had enough time to go out into the city and walk around, eat some pizza, enjoy the company of each other... a cab ride or two... so i may or may not get motion sick, which you wouldn't think since i lived in almost constant migration on a moving vehicle for the last few years. i was so very glad to get back to the airport... 

wrapped in the excitement of it all i woke sunday morning, stayed up all night until monday, flew out monday and arrived early tuesday in Dublin without ever sleeping on the plane. i was so excited to get into a bed... however that was not an option. our room would not be ready until 2 or 3 in the afternoon. it was not quite 9 am. so we wandered. what a beautiful wandering it was. we enjoyed some breakfast (for 2 hours) and some stillness. however the stillness and the exhaustion met and we again took to our wanderings. i truly like Dublin, or at least what i have seen this far. 

i got in bed around half 2 (2:30) dublin time... 8:30am nashville time, 47 hours since i got out of my bed at my sister's house in west nash. i got up for about an hour to have dinner, and it is now almost 5 in the morning here and i just woke up. beautiful. 

i can say that i am excited for this journey. i am excited to grow. i am excited to become...




listen to the music of life. dance with it's rhythm. enjoy it's company. today i live.
