The journey to Wexford took two and a half hours by train.
Even though it’s slightly more expensive than the bus, going by train allows one to walk around, and more importantly, go to the bathroom.
......
I pressed the green button on the door. It slid open. It was one of them automatic toilets. As I entered, the door closed on its own.
I almost wet the floor when a woman’s voice suddenly said, “Press red button to lock door and ensure privacy”
It came from a speaker right beside the sink. You gotta love technology.
.....
I had arrived at 9.30pm. It was slightly drizzling so I decided to walk up to the bed and breakfast about twenty minutes away from the station.
That wasn’t the best of decisions.
- It was a dark night, drizzling and cold
- I took a cab the last time, hence wasn’t really sure of the directions
- I had google map on my phone so it was a foolproof idea (at the time)
- I’m a great a navigator, just like mom
- The streets were empty
This was what happened
- Within 10 minutes, I was lost
- The skies opened and it rained heavily
- Since it was so heavy, I couldn’t take my phone out to check for directions
- I’m pretty sure I stepped on a grave
- There was NO ONE around (on the ground at least)
- The wind made the tree shadows all the more scarier
- I knew that the B&B was up on a hill
- I just didn’t know which hill
Soaking wet, I dragged my luggage back down the hill, past the graveyard and into the city centre. I managed to grab a cab and finally arrived at my destination.
Moral of the story : ?
