Now that we're traveling again, I feel more aches and pains! Maybe taking off all the time during Covid got me out of my best travel shape, or maybe this is just my new normal. But - I still want to travel as much as possible! I also want to travel more simply, make fewer arrangements, and let someone else be in charge. I want to travel in April, but I don't want the trip to be too long (distance OR time-wise) because we're flying to Prague at the end of May. With that in mind we dismissed the idea of Sicily in the spring. Then we considered and dismissed Uzbekistan. Then we didn't like the weather in April for Scotland, so we've settled on the easiest, simplest European vacation I can think of: Ireland.
Ireland doesn't have quite as much drama as Scotland, but there are gorgeous views everywhere. AND - it's a fairly short TA flight, AND it's only 5 hours difference, AND I read about this small group tour that's been highly recommended. (10-12 people). It goes to many of the same places we visited in 2018 but this time Art can sit back and enjoy the views rather than stressing over scraping the side of the car. So now I feel better, knowing that we'll be traveling in April!
