    Heading back to Ireland

    June 10, 2025 in Ireland ⋅ ⛅ 17 °C

    Yesterday was spent finding the bus station and the bus back to Seville from Osuna. We nearly missed the bus and were greeted by lots of laughs as we finally boarded. Having had a very special week together, I said farewell to my travel companions - Billie and Hilary - and headed for the airport. Arrived in wet Bray sometime after 11pm. Good Italian coffee with friends this morning before Mike and I headed west from Bray to join Mickey in Ennistymon for the next 10 days. An easy 3.5 hour journey with a quick stop off at the Barack Obama service station for a sandwich. ( Ireland is his ancestral birth place). A late afternoon walk in the village and along the river was a good introduction to the area. My brother and sister in law ( Chris and Denise) arrived from the UK today. We had a sociable evening catching up and enjoyed a great Irish stew cooked by Mickey. More to explore tomorrow.Read more
