Week 2 of four Fun Photo Friday favorites of Dublin, starting with the Bachelor’s Inn at the corner of Bachelor’s Way and Bachelor’s Walk:

That’s a Lot of Bachelors

Wouldn’t want to be up this high after sampling too much Guinness:

Some would say that the art of distilling is an almost religious experience:

Fun Photo Friday — Dublin Favorites Part 1


Danishness in Bright Yellow

Including this week, I’ll be running a total of four weeks’ worth of articles on Dublin before we continue on to another Irish destination. That means this week’s Fun Photo Friday is the first of four featuring Dublin favorites.

Fun Photo Friday — Circumnavigating New Zealand; Auckland Favorites 3


Queen Street Backpackers

Today we bid farewell to this long series covering an equally long journey. Along the way you saw Rarotonga in the Cook Islands. You got to see a circumnavigation of Australia. You then viewed another circumnavigation, this time of New Zealand.

Ferry Building Reflection

My next travel series will be another cruise. That journey originated in the Mediterranean and eventually went transatlantic. But until then I’ll be doing a photo run of sunsets taken here in El Paso, as we’ve had a spectacular series of them over the past several months. Look for a sunset a day over the next several weeks.

Mirrored Yachts

After the sunset series I owe my firearms friends some articles as well. Those I’ve yet to decide upon, but I’m leaning toward showing off a pair of classic Russian Mosin-Nagant 91/30 rifles (1938 and 1943)and a Mosin-Nagant M44 carbine (1944). I may throw in a First Look at a Ruger AR-556 MPR that week, or perhaps instead a First Look at a Ruger Mark IV Hunter or SIG P226 Enhanced Elite from2012. Whatever I choose, it’ll be fun. Alas.

007’s Aston Martin DBS

At any rate, we’ll be back to travel articles following those sunsets and firearms. I’ll close today’s Fun Photo Friday with this last image of our 2019-2020 Oceania Adventure:
