Top a tha Marnin to ya!

So it took foreverrrrrr to get to Cork. We don't have transfer meetings in our mission because you could potentially be traveling for over 24 hours.

Let me explain.

Tuesday night we took the train to Edinburgh and stayed there for the night.

In the morning we took a 4 hour bus to the ferry and then a 3 hour ferry ride to Northern Ireland. 

Then a bus to the Belfast bus station. MADE ME MISS NORN IRN <333

Then a 2 hour bus from there to Dublin.

Stayed the night in Dublin.

Took a 3 hour bus the next morning.

I finally made it to Cork on Thursday afternoon. :)

and I love it! 

This is exactly what I needed right now :) And I've already been temporary companions with Sister Stevenson twice before so we just jumped right into work and didn't have the awkward new companion phase. hollllla. She's brill.

I will share with you a few things about Ireland:

--> Every sign here is in Irish and English and my brain gets confused.

--> They say "like" here SO MUCH.

             Like, more than I do.

--> Some of the people are small.

--> They use euro instead of the pound.

--> The Police is called the Garda and I need to get a Gardacard in order to live here.

--> There are so many foreign people from: Poland, Romania, Africa, Brazil, Italy, etc. etc.

--> The branch I'm serving in is pretty tiny but awesome.

Yeah I feel like Cork is pretty random and I'm random so it's fab. Oh! I met someone from Scranton, Pennsylvania! I took a photo with her like a creep haha. 

It's gonna be a good transfer. :)
