No matter what. This is my first time out of country and traveling alone so I had thoughts of crazy protests in Dublin and Belfast.

BTW. When you return to the US, follow the smallest line to the passport check, that will surely be the line for US citizens.

Also, if you buy large items there that you can't put in your luggage, you may want to read up now on how to ship them back to the USA, they will get held up in Customs and you may get a call from a Customs agent.

Many times British Columbia and Alberta and Calexico as a kid thats it.

I had my kids young and no money, divorced in my early 30’s no child support and took every penny to raise them. Didn’t start traveling until last 20 yrs with new husband but only Hawaii, and Canada and States.

Time to finally move on and he didn’t want to leave dog so going alone.

I've been worrying about rumors of food and goods shortages once Brexit began as well as price increases. This eases my mind!
