All in all not a bad 32nd birthday, champagne in business class of 767-300, homemade cookies and wine galore! So the 9 hour flight didn't turn out to be too bad, especially since we didn't have to pay a penny for it (Daire mentioned to one of the cabin crew that it was my b-day).
There was one hairy moment when we thought that Daire's luggage hadn't arrived in Toronto but all fears were soon subsided once it appeared last and lonely on the conveyor belt.
A day trip in downtown Toronto was calling to alleviate some of the pain of the 9 hour wait in between our flight from Dublin and our flight to Florida.
An air show of immense skill greeted us on our bus into downtown Toronto. After a couple of photos in front of the CN Tower Daire funnily enough found an indoor baseball game (New York Yankees and Toronto Blue Jays), into which we ventured.
Back to the airport after a few hours in Toronto and our next flight left at 9pm for Orlando, exhausted and half-dead we arrived into our hotel in Orlando at mid-night.
hey daire and sharon, hope ye had a good flight over enjoy your holiday of a life time !!!! Sitting here watching the All Ireland in the rain.
ReplyDeleteHi Daire and Sharon, you had a great start to your holiday and your flight over hope it keeps up for you. Croi Oige surviving without you. Grace is settling in a bit better I think, came home with her first bit of Irish today. Summer is to start tomorrow, everyone getting a bit excited. Good Luck on rest of trip, will be in touch, love Mam and Anne x
ReplyDeleteSharon and Daire, looks like you are already having a ball - great to hear things are going well for you. Today is the first day of sun we've had in ages, so everyone is enjoying it while it's here. Loads of news for you Sharon, will hook up once you come back from your travels. In the meantime the only way is up for you guys. Bring back some good weather x Jodie

ReplyDeleteLovely to get all your news. Life seems very dull here in comparison. Croi Oige is managing without you so far. Grace settled a bit better at school but the asthma is back the last two days. Lovely day today sun actually shone.
