Green with envy

One more goodie from TravelZoo: A summer vacation package in Ireland, including round-trip airfare from Washington, six nights in an upscale golf resort plus one night at the five-star Ritz Carlton Powerscourt, near Dublin, and a full-size rental car. All for less than $1,000. I'm not Irish, but for $999, I could spend a week in Ireland trying to find relatives. The price is based on a four people traveling together, so I guess I'd have to bring some family with me. (That'll ruin it.)

The Cliffs of Mohr are absolutely gorgeous. The waves crash on the rocks in this slow-motion way that --- until I saw them while studying abroad --- I had always assumed was a special effect in movies and on television.

The scenery was so beautiful that it suddenly struck me: I must be an adult. Because if I were still a child, I wouldn't be thrilled seeing anything other than an amusement park.
