If you were worried about my silence (well, you never know) I was on holiday. And I am back. My family and I went to Belfast. Like in the song, which I sang over and over again, enough for Wolfie to hum it. It was my wife's idea. So we were not officially in a different country, but truly, by any practical means, North Ireland truly is a different country than the one we live in. I have been to the Republic of Ireland before and, while North Ireland is sort of separated from it and far less Catholic, you can definitely feel the Celtic roots. I will blog more about my experience in the upcoming days, but we all enjoyed it and sometimes I felt almost at home there.

i can't wait to hear more about it!
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a nice little getaway!
ReplyDeleteMy husband worked in Ireland for one Summer, back in the 2000s and loved it. One of his cousins moved there (when you still could, pre-Brexit) and loves it too.
