Ireland, Scotland, Lake District then exciting destinations in Europe.

Sunday 17th July - Preparing for our Journey

Less than four weeks before we depart.  I figured this blog (which has been dormant for over two years) would be a good way for me to diary the daily events, and share to my family and friends.  So here goes........



This morning I have been in contact with Anita, who lives near Enniskillen, Northern Ireland. We got to know this lovely lady when she shifted to Timaru after the Christchurch earthquakes, but has since returned to her Irish homeland.  
We have booked two nights in her gorgeous cottage -  http://stunningshamrockcottage.com/; she is full of exciting ideas how we (and her) can fill our time. So much to see, so little time.....she has more knowledge than Lonely Planet!!

Doug is trying to condense 768 pages into 21 days!!?

My Blip buddy Amanda (freespiral) sent this book to us.  We are spending three nights in a BnB near where she lives.
