Well, Emily has been to Dublin, made her way to Belfast to see the Warren side of the family and is now in Glasgow, Scotland visiting the Clark side of the family. We haven't had a whole lot of communication from Emily but we know she's been having a great time.
Dublin found her in another hostel, which she's been pretty lucky with as far as clean and safe. This was her last time for hostels in the U.K. As always she did a free walking tour of Dublin first and then she did a bus tour of some kind (don't have too many specifics). Not sure if she did the Guiness tour or not.
After being in Dublin for a couple of days it was time to head to Belfast on the train. Meeting the Garlands (Grandma Warren's first cousin) at the train station they dropped her off at City Hall to look around. She made her way back to their house for dinner in the evening. She met 2nd cousins she hadn't seen in a very long time, which was fun getting reacquainted with them. On Thursday she set off on the bus again to head to Armagh where Grandpa Garland grew up and where there were more cousins to meet. She spent the day drinking coffee and tea, which is truly served every couple of hours there. Everyone stops to have tea and biscuits!! Emily has certainly learned a lot about the Irish side of the family in just a few days. I'm sure we'll hear lots of stories once she gets home.
Friday was time to head to Glasgow. Sid and Jean dropped her off at the airport and fortunately she was not delayed by any volcanic ash eruptions. We haven't heard from her except a call telling us she made it safe and sound. This last segment of her trip will be until the 29th when she flies back to Paris to meet us!!! Can't wait to see her and I know she's anxious to see us.
More to come, but hopefully it's Emily writing and not me.
Have a great weekend everyone, Audrey
