If you've been to Ireland, you've probably flown into Shannon airport (the better to explore the west with, I say). It's a small, regional airport that is VERY easy to get in and out of - and very friendly people. It's in County Clare, Ireland.

It's the time of year to look back and see what we just LOVED, that inspired or accompanied our travels. Here's a list of our favorite Travel Gift items, the 2010 version - and a few more than ten, it turns out. Here's our baker's dozen + of fantastic, inspirational, wearable, travel-able items: books, technology, music, accessories, clothing, bags, and luggage. We've featured all of them, interviewed the creators/authors, and highly recommend them to our Wandering Educators.

Here are a few more Northern films to enjoy, available via the Internet, DVD, or if you’re lucky to catch them at the right time, a showing at the Queen’s Film Theatre in Belfast.
Cherrybomb (2009)
Released on DVD in the UK and soon to be released in the United States, Cherrybomb is young modern Belfast at its most accidental-chic. In crime noir style, this sometimes harrowing, sometimes beautiful film was written by Daragh Carville (Middletown) and co-directed by Lisa Barros D’Sa and Glenn Leyburn.

Our dry and parched landscape has once again got its carpet of green liberally sprinkled with the multi-coloured leaves of autumn.
