After two months in Seattle I set out again on part three of what has become my 'eat pray love' tour. For someone who appreciates alliteration, the British Isles sounded like a good destination to follow Bermuda and Bangkok. And it also sounded really good to see friends - many of which I had not seen for decades. So I set off at the end of September, flying into Dublin and catching the bus up to Belfast where I soon was doing exactly what I hoped to be doing - being with good friends in beautiful countryside - within a couple hours of arrival, Alan had me geocaching all over the place:-)
This post captures the friends I was able to see on the journey.
