Good to be home

Suzanne and I had an awesome time in Ireland. We spent the first few days in a little town called Skerries, which is just north of the city of Dublin. It was a really good time of relaxing (sleeping until late morning/ early afternoon) and connecting with friends like 'Tannie Elly' and Johann - who ended up living in the same town.

Johann took us to Dublin, which is really our kind of thing. We love big cities. We had the opportunity to see the Book of Kells, which is one of the oldest manuscripts of the four gospels. Awesome! We also had an amazing time visiting our Every Nation church in Dublin.

We then hooked up with Chris and Lize and Oom Jakes and Tannie Elly on the west coast, to spend the week in a cottage beside Loch Conn. Again, it was a great time of relaxing and connecting. We did some fishing during the day (with little result) and played cards by the fire during the evening... just what the doctor ordered! We also saw a few beautiful places in the surrounding area.

You can see a few photo's of the trip here.

Having said all of that, it was good to get back. Slough, and in particular our house, has really become home. It was great seeing all our friends in Slough again. Since then, we had a rollercoaster week, which included going to the West End in London and to one of the best beaches in the UK. Unfortuantely, Zaan has to work a full day today, but I am taking it easy.

Peace be with you
