... there having circumnavigated the world by April 2011. My plan is to sail from St Lucia through Panama Canal, down to Equator and on to the Galapagos Islands which will take up the the end of February, I am hopeful that I will be able to continue to the Marquesa Islands and on to Tahiti which would bring me to the end of April - then home.<br><br>My skipper Stephen has his own blog http://blog.mailasail.com/alady

... very big but is known for a few monuments that were recognizable such as St. Anne Shandon Cathedral. Not too far away is Blarney which contains the Blarney Castle and the Blarney Stone. We took yet again another bus into Blarney and hiked up to the Castle. This was the first castle I have seen so it was pretty amazing that something that grand could still be standing and everything in tact. It looked out over fields and fields of green ...

... gain sight of.  We believe that by the next generation, an individual will be measured by the size of their skills and not necessarily by the size of their bank accounts. And theirin lies the shift. Now saying all this, we hope you don't get intimidated by the degree of passion required to get involved in a Permaculture. This is OUR take on the situation, and it does not represent all perspectives of those involved in this resurgence ...

(Erica) Today is our last full day in Ireland so we made the most of it! We started a bit early and ate breakfast at McGillcuddy's Pub before we started our drive. 1st stop...Cork. We arrive in Cork and decide to visit the St. Ann Cathedral and the local Market. After a few wrong turns and u-turns we arrive at the Cathedral...just to find out we were exploring St. Mary's Cathedral - not St. Ann's...ha! Par for the course - what can I say. After finding a bathroom (imagine a ...

... et que j'attendrais son appel... C'est long! Je travaille bientôt alors les autres appels vont devoir attendre jusqu'à demain. Oh well! Je suis plus calme qu'hier. J'espère trouver un emploi, ça va être un peu stressant sinon, voyager 2 mois avec l'équivalent de 60&euro; par jour (bon, dans mon guide ils disent de compter en moyenne de 30 à 40 &euro; par jour pour les "routards fauchés" alors je vais s ...

... seller va bon train! ;-) 25 mai 2007 Je peux ENFIN vous donner de mes nouvelles! J'ai oublié un détail SUPER important hier... LE détail qui a fait ma journée! J'ai trouvé un ouvre-boite!!! Je peux enfin avoir accès à mon sirop d'érable!!! =D Bon, alors dans moins d'une heure, je vais prendre l'autobus pour Youghal. Espérons que tout se déroule sans problème aujourd'hui! Hihi. Je vais essayer de mettre des photos pour le temps qu'il me reste sur Internet... C'est long mettre des photos!

... the bottle of johnnie &amp; coke out, but still just have enough room to rest them on the window seal to keep them cold. Haha, but it was on such an angle so we had to put it down so carefully or it'd fall of down 2 stories :-P Hahaha! The night ended up quite a big one, with the girls eventually going to sleep, but matty and myself continueing on down in the kitchen drinking and running a muck, constantly getting told off by this French ...

... and strolling Cobh&#8217;s steep streets we rounded off our time by checking out St Colman&#8217;s Cathedral, where co-incidentally one of the architects was also named Coleman. <br><br>We spent most of the afternoon walking around the city centre of Cork. Other than it being a busy Saturday afternoon for locals going shopping, the only other noteworthy thing was seeing Nanna walk along for hours without too much trouble after we&#8217;d ...

... House turned out to be a real gem, a beautiful period house with a massive room and the friendliest owners of the whole trip, Michael and Thelma O&#8217;Sullivan, who couldn&#8217;t do enough for us. This was to be unanimously judged the gold medal winning B&amp;B of our entire journey, and we celebrated our good fortune by going down to the main street by the water to a pub for a very entertaining evening of quality family time and getting on the turps.<br>

For the most part I spent the day in a small town west of Cork called Ballincollig. I even picked up a library card. I will tell you the shopping in Ireland is nothing like the US, well maybe a little like trying to shop in northern Vermont. The country is beautiful, but not as commercial as the US. Also they definitely value the environment ...
