Ireland Week. . . Part 4

One of my very favorite parts of traveling to a foreign place is the people watching. I love soaking in a culture of people. I love watching how people dress, how people act, their mannerisms and things of that nature. . . When they think absolutely no one is looking at them.

Every time I leave Europe, I feel like I'm leaving behind part of my heart. I often reflect on if I'm living where I should be living, or if I was meant to live somewhere else.

Here are some candid pictures I took in Ireland. In most circumstances, no one knew they were being photographed. I say most because a couple pictures I got caught. ;-) I loved just sitting in a cafe on the street and watching the people go by.

Thanks for stopping by my blog. It's always nice to "meet" another Leah. I look forward to reading your blog as well.

I love people watching too! I always feel stupid when I get caught though ;)

I can see a couple in which it appears you may have been caught. It makes me wonder how many candid photos I appear in around this world....

Great shots, Leah! I know, that whenever we leave the ocean, especially Cape Cod, Mass, we leave parts of ourselves there as well. We are both from there, Massachusetts, and miss it so much. I love to watch the people where I am am always; every one has a story.......
