Ireland - Druids Glen

We left Edinburgh yesterday morning for I think the shortest airplane ride I've ever been on! The flight had food and drink but you had to catch the flight attendants as they flew up and down the aisle. I never did get anything. I must have blinked as they went by. In addition to the food/drink they were also hawking duty free stuff and lottery tickets. These were not all at the same time either. They had different push carts for duty free and the tickets. Landed in Dublin, got bags, got car and headed south to Druids Glen where we are staying. Had lunch in Greystones, did the booze shopping and then Tim and I were sure we could find our way to Druids Glen going the back way out of Greystones. (He was also sure the tinkers (gypsies) would still be on the corner they were 3 years ago!) They weren't. There is a 2 story building now. Needless to say, we sort of missed a turn or two. Seems like our landmarks we were counting on have now been built on! Bruce and Susan are great...they just sit in the back sit and listen to Tim and I banter back and forth who's right about what turn. And, as usual, I was. The roads do seem narrower here than Scotland. I'm sure we scratched the hubcabs a couple of times getting here.

We napped and read books the rest of the day, had happy hour in our room, had dinner and then crashed. Tim has a cold and is sort of under the weather. He got up this morning, went out and watched the sun come up over the Irish Sea. I swear he is communing with his ancesters. As lousy as he feels...he feels as if he was home (and I don't mean Pebblecreek). He also came back up to the room and went back to bed. We will probably make this a do nothing day. Stay tuned.
