We are just over half way through our tour of the Emerald Isle. I prefer to call it a pilgrimage as I am encouraging our travellers to think of this as a time to know God’s call. But sometimes it is hard to hear the spirit in the midst of tourist shops and hopping on and off a bus!
I apologize for not getting a blog entry posted before now but I have had a couple of challenges. First, I forgot my password to get into my blog site – never a good thing! Second, I have just not had time or energy at the end of the day after filling each hour with sights and experiences. I have, on most days, talked about writing a blog but my intentions have not been lived out.
Let me catch you up a bit. There are 40 in our group. We started in Dublin and after two days there began our circuit around the island. We have been to Waterford – yes, where they make that beautiful crystal. We stopped for two nights in Galway – this included dinner in a castle. Tonight we are in Sligo – only for one night, and then tomorrow we are off to Derry.
