I have been increasing my exercise levels in the last week or so and apart from the usual daily walk with the dog which isnt terribly strenuous due to his frequent stops and starts for sniffs, smells and lifting his leg I have started going everywhere on my bike, well with the exception of grocery shopping and out to Bray to collect Mum, I am doing all the running around, so to speak, on my bike.
Its really liberating as I dont get stuck in traffic and with this lovely weather its glorious being on the bike. Last night I cycled for over an hour all around my local area, goatstown, mt anville, fosters avenue, stillorgan road, and in through and around UCD campus. It was very enjoyable albeit tough in the more hilly areas, as my bike only has 3 gears, but I made it :) Today however my legs are a little jellified but i'll just walk today and get on the bike tomorrow to go to Merrion Tree for coffee with the gang, which should take about 1/2 hour there and 1/2 hour back so my exercise will be sorted.
Today nothing really planned as such, but will possibly get started on my holiday packing. We are off to Kerry at the weekend for 2 weeks. When I get back I will be heading off to India on 2nd August to teach english which I am excited about but also a little nervous about as I've never done that sort of thing before. It will be a huge challenge both in terms of what I'm doing there as well as the heat, dust and the environment. I'll be taking lots of photos and will post some here. I have always wanted to go to India so its a dream coming true thats for sure.
Namaste
Marie
