​into the tunnel and through the farmland to dublin, ireland we go...
today’s travel day was a sweet one. i had the most delicious pad thai on the train, looked out over the beautiful english countryside, and got excited about things i want to see in dublin. i had an inkling that i would like this city a bit better than belfast, and i was right. i love that it’s eccentric, welcoming, and bursting with utter joy (just listen — the sound of the city is music). i also love that i felt confident and very mindful while i lead my scavenger hunt group to the statue of molly malone. i volunteered to navigate without thinking twice and i felt very grounded in what i was doing and in knowing the status of every group member.
