Ship to Shore!

We are off on our cruise in about 2 hours time... We can't wait... getting all the bags lined up at the door, wake the kids at 12.30am, out the door at 1am, drive 3 hours to the airport and fly out to Barcelona at 6.40am..
No point in going to bed as will be too hard to get up ... will sleep on the ship..

Bought a great little gadget yesterday for 4 euros.... to weigh and measure baggage... and we have had the company of my friend Jo and her little daughter Éimhín (an Ust baby also just like Alex!) so she is keeping myself and Declan company until we leave....  doing the official weighing...making tea and catching up on news... Our county is hosting the Féile this weekend (over 5,000 kids marching yesterday in the parade, the largest youth sports parade of under 14 yr olds in the world and all taking part this weekend in hurling, handball and camogie) and her 12 yr old is taking part so we were delighted to have her company ..... and it was nice bonding for our two Kazakh 7 year olds!

Have snuck in my laptop into my luggage so will try to blog a little on our travels....

Have searched everywhere for my camera and cannot find it  :(  Bummer:(
