Back from Ireland

by | Nov 18, 2008 | Travel

Most of the day was seemingly spent on a plane of one sort or another. As we took off we had a quick view of the Irish coast, then it was clouds and ocean for several thousand miles.

In flight we caught up on several episodes of Dr. Who, Season three (loving it!), and also watched the Bucket List.

We actually cleared US Customs in Ireland which lead us to skip the long lines at the JFK international arrivals desk. Of course, we had planned on standing in that line so we were faced with a potential 3 hour layover. Thankfully, Leandra was able to get us on the earlier departure for Raleigh without any change charges!

Once home, we had to adjust to being on the right side of the road again, but at least the roads have more space. We’ll have more photos and details of the Ireland trip over the next few days so stay tuned…
