After being spoiled with the beautiful landscapes of County Cork, our roadtrip continued into the Kingdom, County Kerry.

Ireland has a cable car. Yes…..Ireland.

Which way do cable cars travel? Up right? And down again of … More Dursey Island

Before I start posting about our new home on the other side of the planet, I have one or two more posts from home to show the sheer beauty of Ireland.

It’s been several months since we returned from our three month trip to Berkeley, California and there’s not a day goes by where a random thought about the place doesn’t come into my head. While there I embarked on a little personal project whereby every evening when I finished work I’d go for a stroll … More Cars of Berkeley
Ah yes, The Sound of Music, for many of us it’s our first introduction to Austria….or your first Arnie movie, depending on your preference.
