5 weeks away
Over 400 km walked
2/3 of the Ulster Way hiked
2 nights camping
18 different towns stayed in
3 1/2 weeks on the trail
5 days in the Republic of Ireland
Numerous wonderful people met
A handful of minor injuries
2 heavily used bus passes
1200 photos
A million memories

It’s so hard to return to normal life after an experience like this.  Between the jet lag and the catching up at work this past week seemed to drag on and on.  But as the jet lag wears off and things get back to normal I can’t help but remember this quote “Don’t cry because it’s over.  Smile because it happened” by Dr Seuss.
