The very best picture my husband ever took…I love this.
It was captured near Ross Castle, Killarney on a perfect blue-sky day.

I love to ride upon the sea, whether by ship, boat, boogie board, or by kicking my own two feet. The feel of the sea spray on my face, the gentle or not so gentle rolling of the waves under my body, the knowing that the ocean goes on and on with its beauty.
“For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways; they will lift you up in their hands. ‘Because he loves me,’ says the Lord, ‘I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name. He will call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him.” (Psalm 91:11,12a,14-15)
Riding the sea upon the wings of God’s angels; may His peace, contentment, and joy be yours today. He loves you. Slainte, Lisa
We were due to leave Ireland after our first glorious three weeks in the country. We had reservations on Stena’s ferry out of Dun Laoghaire into Holyhead Wales at some unspeakable hour before daybreak. Arranging with our bed and breakfast hostess for a taxi at around 4:30 AM, we set our travel alarm and fell into bed. At 5:00 o’clock, we were awakened to frantic knocking on our door, and a voice whispering, “Your taxi is out there; he’s been waiting.” We desperately jumped out of bed, threw our belongings into suitcases, and gave up any hope of showers or other waking-up mechanisms. Our taxi driver gave us the appropriate amount of a hard time tempered with a lot of laughter, and by the time we reached the ferry, we were awake enough to enjoy the sea and the journey. But in the back of my mind, I thought that maybe we just should have stayed in Ireland. 🙂 This theme continued on our second trip to Ireland, but that is a story for tomorrow….
Quick poll…how do you feel about the end of a vacation/holiday?
