The next mini-adventure...

Wednesday, May 27. Cloudy, warm.

Well it has been 13 months since I last did a post to this blog, that was when we came home in April 28 after four months on a ship. I thought then that it may be the last long voyage and I still think that way actually, but never say never.

In three days we are off to Amsterdam where we spend three nights before boarding a ship that basically, sails around Ireland, counter-clockwise. I have nothing significant to say at this time except the following:

If the Internet is willing, I will be doing a blog each day. So, Lord and Internet willing, you may enjoy a little Irish Cruise from the comfort of your own home.

Sherman will be looking after our house.

The website is of course      http://dfrtravels.blogspot.ca       so, just punch it in or put in your favourite or bookmark it.
