Last days in Ireland

From 10-20-2008 - Ballintoy

So I spent my last few days in Ireland chilling with my family. I was originally meant to head home but decided to stay on because my aunt Brigid, who normally lives in Surrey/Manchester came up to visit. I knew Aunt Brigid from when she came over to NZ a good number of years ago. When you meet sisters separately you can really see the similarities. I can see parts of Theresa in Brigid when she's looking after Gran but then can see Francis in her when she's on the phone to friends or talking about tv :D. But of course she's her own person and the best thing about Aunt Brigid is she's really chilled out. Not that I gave her or any of my other relatives any reason to get annoyed but I think Brigid is quite patient. Haha, then my dad might say otherwise, i'm not sure.

You know, to be honest, I always find talking about people really awkward. Especially when there's a possibility that they will be reading it. :P The point is that all of my family, mum's side and dad's side are really cool. I get along well with everybody.

So my Aunt Brigid took me to some of the smaller towns nearby. Actually it was probably the most picturesque areas of Ireland. Ballintoy was so so nice. It was stormy as hell but it made for some great pics, including my favourite picture I took in Ireland here:

She also took me to one of the sites of Ireland i've always wanted to see. The smalled church in Ireland. We couldn't go inside but looking inside the window you could probably reach out and touch each wall. Kind of pointless but I like stuff like that.

So yeah, that was my trip through Ireland. I got back to Largs and had to get ready for my first days at work in Edinburgh and then a trip to Belgium. Yep, I work two days then go on two weeks holiday. Awesome :)
