Spring is here, and your body and mind know it. Eager to get outside, moving, seeing new things, traveling? I hear you - road trips are much more fun when the sun is shining and the roads are clear. Flying is easier when you don't have to worry about weather delays and de-icing planes. 

Spring is also fickle - snow this morning, alas.

Driving the Ring of Kerry, and want to get off the beaten path? Head to Staigue Fort - it's between Sneem and Caherciveen, off a tiny road inland. You will drive a very narrow lane, but keep following the signs. There's a visitor centre with films (and a cafe), although we never stopped there. Park your car in the lot and pay your voluntary entrance fee. Skip across the creek, and climb a small hill to get to the fort.
