The Great Ireland Adventure


Well, here I am, sitting in my apartment in Melbourne enjoying the first day of my holidays. We're flying out at 4.30 today from Melbourne airport. We fly to Singapore and stop there for two hours, then off we go across the world to Europe. After an hour long stop in Paris, we head to Dublin, arriving bright and early on Saturday morning at 8.30.
Here is our plan so far...
Sat - Dublin: major catch up with friends
Sun - Meeting Paddy's family for dinner(not sure if this is happening?) and staying in Kildare with my wonderful friend Lynn for a MUCH OVERDUE girlie night.
Mon - Heading back to my home town of Buncrana with a stop in wonderful Derry City (http://maps.google.com.au/maps?hl=en&tab=wl). Amazingly, if you type 'Buncrana' into google maps it takes you to my home town straight away, there are no rival 'Buncranas' hidden in the US.

Tues -
This is lazy day! I'm going to try and watch as much of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Doctor Who as I can in one day, oh yeah, and also catch up with my Mum. Mainly today is about regressing back to the state of a teenager!!

Wed & Thurs - adventures in my home town
Fri - Sun - heading down to Clonmel in Tipperary to meet up with Paddy's folks for the weekend. His brother is coming over from London so it will be Hickey Family Catch up.

Monday - off to BERLIN!!! very exciting
Tuesday - BERLIN, probably drinking German beer and visiting wonderful German museums.
Wed - Still in Berlin.
Thurs- back to Ireland
Fri - Dublin!!
Sat- Back to Buncrana for the last week!!
