Arrived

I'm here!  It was a great flight and the sun was just rising as we approached Dublin.  It was a bright orange-red that lit the clouds around it.  As we landed we went though and below the cloud bank.  No sun today.  Getting through customs was painless and the airport was still familiar from last year.  It took me a bit to figure out where to get the bus and once there realized I had about a 2 hour wait. Went in search of and found some much needed coffee!!

Map of routes!

Figured out how to get a ticket and then just sat and people watched.  I must have looked like I knew what was what because every person who came into the shelter asked me for information  :-)  There was a family from Spain that  was trying to figure out how to get to Letterkenny I happen to "have an app" for the bus timetables and so I showed them the times.  They took a picture of it.

Now I'm on the road and the sun is peeking out which make the greens so much greener.  It's hard to describe if you have never experienced it. There are just what appears to be thousands of shades of green on this Island.  Variations even in a field.  I've passed fields of sheep, horses and cows, I've spotted a Fairy Tree and all varieties of shrubs and trees that I don't yet now the names of (Although I hope to now some by the end of the trip).   A bit more traveling to do today before I get to settle in for a bit.  Final destination today is Ardara.  I meet up with the group tomorrow night and we start our walk/hikes on Sunday.  Will post more pictures once I arrive,
