A Traveller’s Journal
As I mentioned before, I went to Europe for two weeks and had an wonderfully eye-opening time. I had wanted to visit Ireland and it turned out my family had been plotting to visit Europe anyways and that Ireland was one of the countries. Good I thought, how little I knew. It turned out to be two weeks and four countries and if arithmetic strikes your fancy at all, you’ll notice a 3 and a half day visit per country. Granted our division wasn’t as even as we took four days in both Germany and Ireland, three days in Paris and then a night, a full day, and a morning in London. The rest of the time was consumed by the drone of turbine jets, the rattle of metro cars, the whir of a train’s engine, and the rasp of tires to the road.
