Isn't that the problem with getting somewhere. Days to prepare and pack, or night before packing as I do, and then the journey begins. It would be great if we could instantly transport ourselves to locations that are great distances, but at this point, that won't be happening. So we board a shuttle to get to the airport, wait until we can take a 75 minute flight to an interim destination, and in this case, wait another 5 hours until the longest part of our journey begins.

So
here I sit, 35,000 feet above the ground, traveling over 600 mph, and
at this point 4000+ more miles to go. The map says we are over
Montana at the moment heading into Canada airspace. This is the
beginning of this journey.
It's
not the first time I've been to Ireland, or the second. This is my
fifth trip since 2004. Each trip is a different adventure mostly
with different traveling companions, although this is the second time
Rita and I have gone together. I do think she is a good companion
for me and we have similar interests.
On
to the trip. I am going to try and write a blog ever couple of days
and maybe even post a couple of pictures along the way. That said, I
never know for sure how successful I will be on that.
I
am adding this blog to the one I created on a previous trip. I
didn't see any point in starting a brand new one, but that's me.
