Subjugated in Sligo!




Ah, road trips with kids.

Great idea. Rough implementation.

This weekend proved it. We drove from Dublin to Sligo and back. What do Lisa and I remember? "Dad, are we there yet?" Mummy! Mummy! Mummy!" Desperate quests for food. And, the list of mental challenges goes on and on. If we properly reflect, we might recall slight visions of magnificent waves to surf and cairns to climb. But as we write this on a Sunday evening at the end of our Clark W. Griswald weekend, we find it hard to do anything but sit, stare at the TV and hope Ava and Liam go to sleep early.

From our Dublin home,

Tom & Lisa, the subjugated parents that we are tonight
