first thing..... breakfast!!!
i love to travel! however i dread the first day of trips, especially when traveling internationally. it is pretty exhausting adjusting to the time difference and getting situated. my dad and i arrived in ireland at 7:30 monday morning, (ireland time) and there is about a 7/8 hour difference from salt lake. we had to do all the "beginning of the trip things" like get the rental car, find the hotel and check into the hotel.
i am actually surprised with how smoothly the trip has gone so far. my philosophy is, expect things to go wrong, so then if they go right i am pleasently surprised. with a few misturns and wrong gps directions, we were able to find out hotel in pretty good time. we had some funny moments adjusting to the driving on the left side and getting use to how narrow the streets are compared to the states. my dad kept making these wide turns and it was freaking me out because i kept thinking we were going to hit something. i would be like "dad watch out" and he would be like "don't you understand how hard this is!" haha it was hilarious and we ended up to laughing about it after! but in the moment.... stressssss
poached eggs
hot chocolate
dad, with a sigh of relief that we didn't crash the car. this was taken after we successfully parked the car and i am not going to lie, i was pretty relieved too.
