Day one. So much lies ahead. Every now and then I'm overcome with nerves at what might go wrong, the terrible things that could happen. No point in worrying of course, but that doesn't stop it.
Goat burrito with Nora for lunch, looking forward to dinner, mostly to see Sara and Michiko, and spend an evening with Nora & Adam, and Neil.
It was an odd feeling, leaving Ireland. Anti-climactic in many ways. No tears at the airport, but I'm not emigrating, only going on holidays - as I keep telling everyone. It still felt like I was abandoning Ireland, betraying her. Like I had no right to miss her green hills - I'm the one leaving her.
Six months. Six bloody months.
What was I thinking!?
Bring on the world!
