Inter - Air - Rail 2003
TRAVEL DIARY OF IRELAND
written by Luciano Monti Translated by Emiliano Marelli
Dedicated to my dog and her cats
FOREWORD
In any good book worthy of respect (is not our case) there must be the introduction, we insert in the hope to encourage it to continue reading the stories of our lived 20 days to "stray" between airports, trains, camping, hostels and homes of other people known and not known! Italy is the banana republic, as the Economist, or Indian figs, as Gianni Agnelli? So this year, about twenty days before leaving we decided to visit Ireland, Edimbraaaaaaa and part of Scotland and then end up sleeping under the bridges of London. If before you had any doubt whether or not to read the diary, after the introduction that I bet you believe that it is better to let it go.
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
Thanks to PD (Emiliano), which I was born and passed for twenty days, TEK (Luciano), which has endured for twenty PD and spends days, LAURA who has recharged the phone, brought food and comfort accompanied to the airport to ELENA we hosted in Dublin, the various characters who have gathered there when we had the hitch, drivers of buses more than once we have paid (probably looked like we were tanned) to that for better or VICENTINI for worse have helped us in times of difficulty, for AURELIO AND SARA who have accepted their Mitsubishi Colt as if we were family (we had kids), and a NICOLETTA SIMONE that have guided us in London, MICHELA I gave its part of the bag when I was cold (not by you angry), a PAOLA that one evening we agreed to his house, on the fake John English neo zeolandese perhaps we cheered and entertained with his garbled speech, a MANUELA of CTS Sesto S. John the Interrail ticket and mythical tessere Students and certainly all those I forgot.

BEFORE STARTING
"Before leaving for a long trip, bring with you the desire not to return to more" Irene Grandi Vasco Rossi
So expect the holidays have arrived, missing just over two hours at the start and I'm still looking for a place to put my backpack .... the biggest problem is the weight to be respected for not paying surcharges at the airport! 15 kg. in the hold and 7 kg. of hand luggage that will become only once crossed the threshold of the baggage of Stansted, we will succeed in bringing all that weight? The journey will be long and tiring but I can do and PD (MA DOVE !?!). Also in 'ste cazzate should I take on, the normal life is too boring and then you say that to learn English well you must practice on the spot! Yesterday evening a 'melancholy attacked us, we are sorry to leave the friends you started: who to Romania, people in Iceland, who for Egypt and who was at home (that ass ... .. these .)! It would have been nice to leave all together, but everybody has this year decided to take their own way and we, with our burden we are ready to go! Will mean we will come back with many stories to tell, to let friends and all those that want to hear. 8:30 p.m. : Arrival at the airport, willingly or not the blonde us at Orio al Serio. Check In regular kg estimated by the electronic balance made homemade Nonna Marelli are perfect! The bag weighs 15 kg 'each', we should not pay any extra. We look forward to the arrival of the three virgins, that we leave mooolto sorry ......... moments do not arrive in time for the greetings! Not that there was traffic on the motorway, not that they are not able to drive (... bravissssime are ...), but it can be the most interesting Orio Center Baldi of two young people who leave without a goal, without a why? Ni ... .. Uhm ... vabbè finally arrive, photo (lost) in the midst of women and the way to boarding GATE N ° 2 direction Stansted. Here before you leave a mess brought with Diplomatic Security officer at METAL DETECTOR: in a hurry we have passed the inspection and we have forgotten to say "virgins" and the staff can not understand the demands and needs of young Italian male! In the end we reach the goal, receiving insults and short-wave blocking the influx of people who wanted to board ........ We, on the short bus trip first class that takes us up to Boeing 737 (capacity 250 persons). Fantozziana race to win an honest mesta eighth row, and wins the PD WINDOW SEAT. We are accompanied by ONION SISTERS, beautiful, sweet, friendly handyman and hostess of the Ryan Air ...
