Baltimore Walking Festival
Baltimore had its Walking Festival over the weekend. Fantastic couple of days:
Saturday afternoon we headed out to Inis Beg, the most northerly of the Carbery Hundred Isles. Weather was a bit 'watery', but cute animal life and adorable view spots (like Pumpkin's Puddle!) made up for that. Definitely a place to revisit.
Sunday was a heritage walk, which was a treat. Got to hear all about the Sack of Baltimore (1631), when 108 villagers were abducted by Algierian pirates (quotes from The Princess Bride ran through my head: "Murdered by pirates is good!"). Amazing tale, and glorious weather.
And after much walking and conversation, we finished up with a good scattering of pints, as my brother would say. Lovely.

Saw your blog advertised through facebook. After immersing myself in The Wire I was horrified, amazed and intrigued that anyone would voluntarily undertake a walking tour of baltimore.
Am now feeling a weird mix of relief and disappointment.

Ha! As they would say on The Wire: 'Yo why you always be ragging on me; that's cold, man! Ya feel me?'
Trick is in the pronunciation: Bawl-timore vs Bal-timore.
I haven't even seen a nail gun since I arrived...

I never worry about action, but only inaction.

I worked very hard, but I think it's unfair to make it all sound like it's all David's fault.
