Leaving Ireland

Well I'm off to London in 2 hrs.I'm at the airport and cannot post pics so....Ireland and it's differences from Canada..other than the 'big' diff...driving on the opp. side of the road---in the south all signs are in 2 languages,Irish and---toilet handles are on the r. side or push button top--yield signs say'Give Way'---there is an amber light before the red---hedges between houses,not fences---stone fences and hedges separate fields---tyre instead of tire---that's all I can recall for now.
When I arrive in London..it's off to buy a Euro-rail pass,spend a couple of days in London, and then travel by train to Scotland..Norway-Finland..and work my way down to Greece,where I hope to be on a beach when Aug.31 arrives...the first day that staff and students will be back at it... .

  6. Hi Bob- finally found my way here! What a marvelous rewarding venture you're enjoying -I'm thoroughly enjoying my armchair travels with you! Love the stone house nestled between the rock hills, all the water scenes - your class photo & you "coming out" from the Orange/Blue in your Re Wings jersey!!! Great fun imagining the left-hand shifting on the cow paths! I know you're enjoying getting the"feel" of the places and people- did you take your guitar? I'm printing out all your blogs & will enjoy reminiscing all year long! Ryan & Ashley leave for New Zealand for8-10 months Sept.2 - & will continue to follow you around the world. Will send you his info when he gets there - in case you can visit! I'm sitting here smiling happily enjoying your wonderful experiences and delight in meeting the world! Take care, live, sing, laugh & enjoy! Thanks for the opportunity to experience it with you! May drop in to clinic to say hi to Colleen. Happy Days! Joyce
