Cabo 2025
Le Blanc – Cabo
Umbrella drinks without umbrellas and butlers for days. Cabo, a magical place were everyone speaks English and Sean kinda speaks Spanish.

Wild Glow at the Zoo 2025
For a month each spring, The Living Desert gets taken over by thousands of glowing sculptures. It’s an event called Wild Glow and believe it or not, it changes every year. Each sculpture is made of what appears to be a welded wire mesh with a sort of translucent fabric Read more

Galway & Sean’s Bar
Galway looked like every other town we’d been to, which again isn’t a dig I’m just at a loss for how describe yet another. We did happen upon the offices of famous game developer John Romero (DOOM, Wolfenstein, etc) which was neat for me. I’m betting Sarah doesn’t even remember Read more

Cliffs of Moher
The place we stayed the night before, in Doolin, was unremarkable so I’m not going to bother wish photos. However they did have a map for guests to pin their homelands. I somehow managed to cram one into the already over-marked southern tip of CA. There was also a group Read more

Bunratty Castle and Folk Park
This stop was a bit of an odd one. It was part historical site (the castle and some remaining structures) and part faux town of yesteryear. To their credit, it was sometimes hard to tell which parts were original structures and which parts were fake. At one point we wandered Read more

Slea Head Drive
This drive, pronounced like “sleigh”, was similar to The Ring of Kerry which you’ll remember from Killarney a few posts back. The Ring of Kerry seems to get top billing on the Island but everyone with whom we spoke said Slea was better and we agreed. We had originally planned Read more

Dingle, once upon a time, was a small fishing village and while they do still bring in seafare their main industry these days is tourism. I’m not quite sure how to feel about that. We heard similar stories around the country about tourism taking center stage. I don’t believe it Read more

Pax Guest House
I don’t know if I can do justice to The Pax Guest House, but I’ll try. It’s owned and operated by a man named John, who by all accounts is doing what he was put on this earth to do. Every inch and every moment of this place was thoughtful Read more

Ring of Kerry
The Ring of Kerry is a drive similar to that of Maui’s Road to Hana. We chose to drive it ourselves, which started out as a great idea and ended up as a bad one after Google sent us down a “two way road” roughly wide enough for a portly Read more

Some Time Apart…
Sarah and I have been to a bunch of foreign countries together; Italy, Croatia, and Iceland… come to think of it we seem to favor countries that start with I. Anyhow, on the morning of the 16th Sarah and I went our separate ways for the first time ever which Read more
