London Here We Come – 16.5.201

We pulled into the Dublin City port in a black Mercedes taxi headed to terminal 1. BAM! There it was, our huge Irish ferry. It looked like a cruise ship. After walking up some stairs and hallways we were on. Then we entered into a gorgeous lobby with jolly crew members greeting us. We made our way down the outside edge with red velvet carpet, and leather on either side designating seating areas. We sat by a window in some comfy chairs when it hit me, we were on a ferry headed to Holyhead. In three hours we will be in a new country. Wondering around the ferry we found a movie theater, casino room, arcade, playground, shop and café. The Irish port disappeared into dark blue sea and a light blue clear sky. Soon the England coast was insight. We exited through a cold dim gray metal tunnel. Once on the other side we realized we actually hit Wales when the signs not only had English but Welch as well. Then we took a series of buses, trains, and subways to get to Reading. From there Laura’s friend picked us up in a tiny green car to take us to her home in Wokingham. There she made us a chicken fajita dinner. She is a fun and nice woman. I feel comfortable here with my friends, her, her husband and her two dogs in a small two bedroom cozy home.
