Fahan Beehive Huts, Dingle Ireland 🇮🇪

These prehistoric, well-preserved beehive huts (aka clocháns) were inspiration for the Star Wars huts on the planet Ahch-To (episode VII). We had to stop during our drive around Dingle Peninsula!

A1: Happy Aloha Friday! Whenever I visit Oahu, I stop at Matsumoto’s on the North Shore for Shave Ice 🍧

The ice is fluffy, finely shaved, and flavored with fruit syrups, condensed milk, red beans on the bottom. Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top! So Ono!

A1: For frozen treats, I almost always order pistachio gelato during my travels (in honor of my Mom). There’s a gelateria located next to the Duomo, Florence, 🇮🇹 and — as a creature of habit — always get the pistachio gelato with a pistachio macaron on top!

I’d love to return to Ise Bay, Japan, where we met ama divers who shared their stories of diving for pearls and food. They grilled their fresh catch: lobster, fish, squid, oysters. Stories & seafood: food for the soul

Thank you, Pope Francis, for your love. I remember during the deafening silence of Covid, you led us in a prayer that gave us all hope.

Your memory will be eternal. Thank you for your legacy of love, faith, and service.

Let perpetual light shine upon you and may your soul rest in eternal glory.
