IRELAND
Hello everyone! I have made it safely to Ireland. we flew in from paris today. our next tour leave tomorrow and we do all of southern ireland. lots to look forward to and no film. i have already gone through 7 rolls! im a crazy picture taking fool. of course we did go to england and france first. anyways lots of fun! i will have to fill you in on it all when i get back. its almost 11 pm here and we need to be up early. one fun thing that happened yesterday tho. i decided that i wanted one last pic of the eiffel tower and preferably at night. well first of all its not dark dark till like 1030 or 11. anyways, we got lost, then we finally found it. it was like 80 degrees out when it starts to sprinkle! whatever,so we got a little wet, it cleared up. well then we finnally found the spot i wanted for the pic when the tower lit up. it started to rain again and there were some very threatening clouds off in the distance and i could have sworn i saw a lightning flash. we were both in our shorts and t-shirts with one little sweater. we did see lightning so we counted in between that and the thunder, 15 miles away, ok. well then it was 12, then 10, the CRACK! BOOM! this HUGE bolt and like ground shaking thunder. it POURED! we ducked under a building which had little if any lip of coverage, but a roman family was nice enough to let us get under their umbrellas. well we thought it was pouring when it got harder! then even harder. we could barely even see the tower anymore it was soo thick. THEN it hailed!! and good size chunks too! i was so wet on my whole right side, couldnt fit all of me under the umbrella. anyways, i felt bad for the people who were on the tower. i would have been terrified. it finally let up and ended up being really nice out, and i got my picture so all was well. but we were so happy to get back! anyways that was one of our many adventures. i hope everyone is doing well and i will talk to you all later.
