Yesterday was a frustrating one. For all the wonderful things about Ireland, like the people and the scenery, travel is not easy. Driving is difficult in the Emerald Isle for many factors, the largest one being inconsistencies in the size of roads and their overall condition. Most times the name or identification number of the [...]

Blooper Reel
Halfway through this Ireland adventure and I've got lots to share, but not all the time to do so. We've taken hundreds of pics, but not all came out as well as you (or mostly Steph) would like. Consider the below as unapproved and unauthorized pics of the journey so far.
Have fun storming the castle!
Guys, we booked a room at a castle for tonight's stay and I have to admit, the place is even better than the pictures. Our first night in Ireland we stayed at an AirBnb which was essentially some guys spare room, but tonight, we splurged. Some available activities include; fly fishing, Woodcock shooting and a [...]
The Cliffs of Moher
Do you remember the scene in The Princess Bride where Fezzik, Inigo and Vizzini climb the The Cliffs of Insanity with the Dread Pirate Roberts in hot pursuit? We went their today and just parked in the lot instead of climbing. We also took a ton of pictures - check these out.
Proof of Life
Have I mentioned that I miss my dogs? Do they even miss us? Karma is winking and Crunch's tail is a damn blur. I know they love being at their Grand-Pawrents, but honestly, look a little depressed, ok?
Northern Ireland and #FreeDerry
The beginning of day three has already exceeded expectations as our lodging, The Bishops Gate Hotel, has given us both a nice rest and an education. Staying in (London)Derry taught us a great deal about Bloody Sunday and the importance of freedom to the oppressed. The basis of one U2's greatest songs, Derry's history is [...]
Let’s just talk about day two!
First things first, day one in Dublin was not fun. Between the delays at JFK and sitting an extra 2 hours there, nothing went well. We left late We got in late We didn't sleep The place we rented to stay was terrible Honesty, I'd rather move on to day two. It wasn't perfect, but [...]
The Worst Part of Travel
Of all the things that could go wrong on a trip, from lost luggage to late planes, none compare to leaving my two dogs behind. As the Shiba breed is, Crunch (B&T) and Karma (Sesame) are bright and independent dogs, and when they see the suitcase come out and clothes get stacked they immediately know [...]
Shameless Self Promotion
Hey everyone - with our trip to Ireland coming tomorrow, Steph and I decided that sharing it in real-time could be an exciting option. Follow this blog for updates on this trip, future travels and experiences from the past. Comments are welcome, shares are appreciated, but most of all, check out the site as we [...]
This isn't my image, but as Liz Lemon says "I want to go to there."
