The Happy Canuck never misses an opportunity to chat with everyone she meets!

Although I wrote about the great good time I had in Dingle earlier, I wanted to share a few pictures that weren’t available then. It had been a rough day for me, so by the time I arrived, I was pooped out, starving, and feeling bummed about only staying in this gorgeous location only one day! My first stop in Dingle after I showered away the road was Out of the Blue… Read More

Going back a few days on this post, but it was an interesting enough day to warrant a post. I missed seeing quite a bit while in Killarney, and was just so tired that I didn’t relish the thought of hopping back on the bike.

Something in the far recesses of my soul was gently telling me, “It’s OK”

This is the first of what I hope to be several posts about my three days in Dublin in July, 2016. Unbeknownst to me when I booked this trip, I booked my first three nights in the heart of Dublin’s touristy Tempel Bar. You can find all manners of photos and details about Tempel Bar, and I know I could have participated in dozens of touristy type things. I learned from @MorganJDeane about a… Read More
