The Magic Bus

Richard, Philippa and Tom on the road. And up the mountain. And in the desert. And on the snow.

OK here we go. Sherry, check. Mince pie, check. Christmas music shuffling, check. Naff decorations bought from CVS Pharmacy on Christmas Eve 20 years ago after returning from covering a disaster somewhere in Central America, check. Let the decorating commence! #christmas #tree #decorating
The Whiddy Island ferry. It’s a ten minute crossing to this tiny island which is a bright green gem of a place. We pedalled through lanes flickering with montbretia to see the Napoleonic-era forts and a lonely graveyard with the remains of a sixth century church. We skimmed stones and had sandwiches by the sea before chugging back to Bantry. #ireland🇮🇪 #whiddyisland #whiddyislandferry #ferries #cork #isolating #exploring #nature #green #history

The Bronze Age stone circle behind our cottage. Apparently they always have two upright entrance stones facing a flat one. They usually line up with a specific celestial event. This one looks like it faces the sunset. Magical. People had left offerings of shells, money and sticks bound with cloth in the middle. #ireland #stonecircle #nature #exploring #green #ancient #mysterious
