I got a 35 euro flight from Berlin to Dublin and then a 215 euro flight from Dublin to New York. But I had to stay in Dublin for a night. Good thing I have family there.
I took a city bus to my Uncle John’s office. He took me out to lunch, and I was able to leave my bag with him.
I wandered around Dublin. It seemed pretty different without my mom or sister.
Then I stayed the night at John and Fiona’s. I met back up with their kids, my cousins, Mercy and Lola. They’re about 14 and 10 and we haven’t seen each other for a while, so it was weird to start off with, but then we got more comfortable with each other. I like them a lot.
I was happy to get on the plane. I had a sense of accomplishment, and I was excited to see my sister in New York, and be back in the US.
