Welcome to Wales
My third visit to Wales, and first to Holyhead. Wales has a harsh exterior, a working man’s country that is rugged with it own distinct charm.

County Cork
Ireland is an enchanting country and my first visit to the southern part of Ireland did not disappoint as I spent time in Cobh, Cork, and Blarney.

Fabulous Falmouth
Cornwall has a very distinctive charm that almost makes it feel separate from the rest of England. Falmouth is one of the many cities/towns in Cornwall where it would be so easy to get lost for a day or two enjoying the charm on offer.

Stoned in Salisbury
Salisbury is a city steeped in history with Stonehenge, Salisbury Cathedral, and the city of Salisbury itself providing a time warp back to an ancient medieval England.

Edinburgh – Hagis, Kilts, and Whiskey
My only previous visit to Edinburg was a business trip and I didn’t get to see much of the city. Today I was overwhelmed with just how much culture and heritage was packed into the central part of Edinburg.

Trolling Trondheim
Last night we headed north again to visit the city of Trondheim. Norway’s third largest city provided a wealth of history and Norwegian culture, including the spotting of a few more trolls.
-
The Magnificence of Molde
A small city in southern Norway provided stunning natural beauty and architectural heritage.
-
A Day in Alta
The warmest day experienced inside the Arctic Circle. Alta was a more modern city featuring the spectacular Northern Lights Cathedral.

Honningsvåg – The Top of Europe
The view from my beer comes from a pub in the Northern most city in continental Europe. It has taken a while, but we have finally reached the top of Norway and spent the day in charming Honningsvåg before we head south, and hopefully a warmer climate later today.

Trolling in Tromsø
Tromsø, the Northern Lights capital of Norway and deep in the land of the midnight sun. I have begun to believe paradise is not a place, it’s more a state of mind. Beauty abounds everywhere. It’s just packaged better in Tassie!
