Dublin at last

So this is a day late but craziness and rushing have been consuming my time but here it is. Well, to start off my blog I could talk about many things that dotted my day. The 10 hour delay, the way my brother and his girlfriend and accommodating generously, the sleepless flight, the music and food at the pub,but nothing can and will compare to the descent into Dublin. When our monster airbus lowered below the multiple layers of clouds and the homeland was finally visible nothing could've prepared me for the emotion the punched me in the chest. I have never experienced that feeling I got when I saw that dream I have pictured for a decade finally manifest itself in this moment. It's hard to explain. Imagine wanting something for so long and finally realizing it's here. Surreal is possibly the word. I thought maybe I was dreaming and that the plane was actually over the US still. I didn't want to get my hopes up but when it hit me I sat there trying to hold myself together. It was only a sight. I hadn't met the people or ate the food but I saw the sight and it was all i needed and the emotion came. As for tears....well I'll leave that to the imagination and the judging oh and maybe for Leah to spread a few rumors.
