The start of our trip. We flew into Dublin, Ireland and here's the traffic going out of Dublin. Notice that they drive on the "wrong" side of the road. Incredibly stressful. These street are some of the widest we drove on. Most streets are 2 lanes large enough for 2 mini coopers to pass each other. If you have anything larger than a mini cooper, you hold your breath and hope that your side view mirror doesn't get ripped off when the car passes you!
Ok one of the things I feel in love with is the chimney potts on top of the chimneys. It reminds me of Harry Potter and Mary Poppins! I loved Ireland. The people are so sweet and kind.
I only took 999 pictures and so I'll try and narrow them down to my most favorite.

It's been awhile since I've blogged. We went on a wonderful trip to Ireland (loved it), Aran Islands, Scotland, Shetland Islands and Amsterdam. We went for 2 weeks and had a wonderful time. As I sort through the pictures I'll comment on them.

Ok, I haven't blogged in awhile. Canned lots and lots of spiced peaches, ham and beans, black-eyed peas and I think that's it. Knitted up a new pair of socks for our trip to Ireland, Scotland, Lerwick (in the Shetland Islands) and Amsterdam. We're leaving on the 26th!! Lots to get done. I got a Seminary teacher, he thought it was safe to answer the phone!! I'm so excited and I've been packing for 2 weeks now!! I'll have to blog about my Thursday night knitting group one of these days, Erin tells me I need to.
