I obey your law of gravity...

Today I saw the waterlilies bloom and the swallow's dance.  I went for a last walk around Old Campus, in the fields and wooded areas and the pond/garden.  As I was leaving the fields the swallows started to fly and weave in and out, and then they were just flying around me, all the way until I left the fields.  It was amazing to watch.  And a good send off.

And then in the pond I was pleasantly surprised to see waterlilies.  I didn't even know that they were there, even though I've seen the lily pads.  Some were just buds still, and others were in full bloom.  And the reeds are taller than I am now, so I could stand on the rocks among them and just absorb the water sounds and the waterlilies and the birds flying among the old stone of the church steeple.

It's drizzling out, but that's okay.  I'll miss this place... well, old campus anyway :oP

Only a little bit more stuff to do.  I need to throw out a bunch of stuff, and then just clean everything, and I'm done.  Then it's an early bedtime 'cause it's up at 4 am for this girl tomorrow. 

going home, ireland
