If I hadn't mentioned it before, I travel. A LOT. Both for work and pleasure, but mostly work. I am in Ireland this week and next week visit
ing 5 different cities. I started the week landing in Belfast and am working in an area called Ballymoney, near the King's Causeway. Here are a few snapshots from tonight's dinner. My second Guinness since my arrival, they really are better here :) Our host took us to the Bushmills Inn/Distillery for a lovely dinner. The fire was roaring, a shot of my Guinness, and this was the sculpture on the side of the building.

I love the bird's eye view, that's stunning! The sculpture is pretty cool- I had a book called the Red Branch at one point.
