It’s a well-known fact that a Gentleman Adventurer’s favored mode of travel is by dirigible. Unfortunately, it’s getting harder and harder to find a travel agent to book passage by rigid airship these days. Well, Gents, it appears that our long national nightmare may soon be over:

It’s before dawn and I’m up making my final preparations. Checking that the necessary supplies are in order.

This will be among my shortest trips ever; a mere ten days. But previous experience has taught me that a great adventure can be had in a short time, if only you remember to keep the scope of the trip limited to what is achievable in the alloted time. So my plan is to spend a few days enjoying Dublin, and then to bus out to Dingle, where I will walk the Dingle Way around that rugged penninsula, bus from Tralee back to Dublin, and fly home.
Experience has also taught me that most planning before a trip is next to worthless when the realities of the Road intervene, so my secondary plan is to ditch all this planning and wing it.
