. . . . . . really was a long journey, about 23 hours door to door.
Smooth flight but oh those main cabin seats - they get more uncomfortable
every time we fly. Needless to say, little or no sleep during the 7.5 hours
aloft all night.
But we made it and are now unpacked and comfortable in our
bright and spacious Dublin hotel room overlooking the
River Liffey.
At Heathrow during our layover I looked but didn't buy!
Leaving very busy Heathrow and heading West across the Irish Sea.
Coming in for our landing in Dublin - what a perfect day for flying.
Almost too exhausted to take photos, but snapped the river outside the hotel
before coming in to unpack and have a short little rest. . . . .lying flat rather than
scrunched up in an uncomfortable plane seat. We'll pop out early evening for a look
around and a light meal. The weather is absolutely fabulous - and it should remain
this way for our entire five days here in the city. Then we'll be touring around the
beautiful countryside south and west of Ireland. . . . . .more likely in rain.
My first Irish experience has been very nice - the welcome at the hotel was
wonderful, and a sweet Irish lass just delivered chocolates to our door.
What more can one hope for!
