Tomorrow is "Go" Day

Tomorrow We Depart for Ireland Date Aug 12, 2022 Total All Caminos: 1620 miles Names for various parts of the Iveragh Peninsula trail system. 1. Kerry Way 2. Ring of Kerry 3. Wild Atlantic Way Meaningful Moment Took Adriana and Jayden out for a Burger King run and a Starbuck's run. Then we did a check-thru of Carlos' and Adriana's backpacks. All is looking good. Finalized some equipment needs. Completed the American Airlines on-line check-in procedures. Just like on my last trip to Spain, we could not check-in on-line for the international portion of the flight, so we will get that done tomorrow at the gate when we turn in my backpack for baggage check-in. I believe that both Carlos' and Adriana's backpacks should qualify for carry-on. Random Thought of the Day The peregrine falcon watchers (of which I am one) from the Genesee Valley Audubon Society are having a get-together tomorrow. I will be sad to miss an opportunity for camaraderie. On the Road ...

Day 04: From Bridia Valley to Glen Carr Date Aug 17, 2022 Today's Distance: 6 miles / 10 km The second half of Black Valley to Glen Carr Route Total Ireland  28 miles. Total All Caminos: 1648 miles Lodging: Campers Inn @ 30 € Total Lodging: $ 170 Taxi: $ 30 Buses / Trains: $ 90 Total Transport: $ 120 Food: $ 20 Total Food: $ 60 Meaningful Moment The idea that I seen to be missing something.  Most likely, I am burned out on hiking.  Maybe I don't want to go on alone after Sunday when Carlos and Adriana return to the USA. Maybe I need a new challenge and I've reached the point of repeating past adventures. Random Thought of the Day So many people are stuck in their bubble they don't realize everything that's out there. -- Carlos Some hikers we met on the trail of my age were impressed with Adriana being out here and enjoying the hike and it made them think that they want to bring their grandkids. Adriana thought that today's mou...

Day 11: Skellig Islands

Image
Day 11: From Caherciveen to Portmagee Date Aug 24, 2022 (Wednesday) Today's Distance: 9 miles / 15 km Route and Stats Route Video Total Ireland: 67 miles. Total All Caminos: 1687 miles Lodging: Sunset B&B @ $ 90 Total Lodging: $ 725 Total Buses / Trains: $ 245 Food: $ 40 Total Food: $ 256 Meaningful Moment Skellig Islands Sea Cruise It was nice being on the ocean in the swells and troughs. According to the captain, these were six to nine foot waves. Lots of sea salt sprayed in the face. And of course, the Skellig islands were beautiful. Wish I could have done the landing excursion cruise. But I couldn't make the timing work what with hiking. Random Thought of the Day Lots to talk about today. Have repeatedly tried to get a hold of the Skellig Lodge and Hostel in Balliskellig. They don't answer the phone or answer emails. They are perfectly situated for my next stop. Otherwise I have to go too short a distance or too far a distance. Update: gav...
