This will be short and sweet tonight because I did very little today.

Had a sleep-in and got up late, then returned my rental car as I already have a ride booked to the airport tomorrow. Paddy came up from Gorey to meet me at the airport and bring me back to Mary and Nicky's house. Had a few last minute little hassles with my lovely Gaby Garmin. She wanted to take me through the city again, but I was on to her this time and as I had a vague general idea of how to get to the motorway to go to the airport I just kept going in that direction. So after ignoring all her commands for about 5 minutes she kicked in with a new route that took me via the motorway straight out to the airport.
No problems with the check-in of the car and I said "Goodbye" to little Susie Suzuki who had taken me to some challenging places - up some very big hills and mountains and around many windey roads on this journey.
Then we had a lovely dinner together- Mary, Nicky, Paddy and I.

I love the Irish food. Today we had Boiled Bacon with proper veggies. Yum!
Then we just sat around and had lovely conversation.

Tonight, we are off to 7pm Mass at St Bernadette's and that's the end of a quiet, pleasant day where I could just chill out and gird my loins for the journey ahead. This time tomorrow night I will be on the plane, well on the way to Dubai.
It's been a fabulous time, but I guess that all good things must come to an end. I am so grateful that so many things have just gone "right" on this trip and I have been blessed in so many ways.
Thanks for coming on the journey with me and especially for the emails you sent to me along the way. I never felt lonely once and I'm sure that was due to the constant contact I had with my family and friends along the way.
So, may your God go with you on all the journeys that lie ahead of each one of you.
I, for one, will miss my morning read of your blog, Moira. I have thoroughly enjoyed climbing mountains, crossing rivers and exploring many towns and villages with you. I have both cursed and praised Gaby and enjoyed the occassional beer and coffee. Thank you for creating such an interesting blog. Safe trip home. xx
ReplyDeleteThanks for your lovely comments along the whole journey Denise. It's been a pleasure to write this blog and I know it will be a great memento when the memories start to fade!
