Buffett List #6: Seaside Heartbreak with an Irish Lamb
“I wish you were mine again my dear. I’m on a sea…of heartbreak.”
Sea of Heartbreak, Jimmy Buffett. License to Chill. Mailboat Records/RCA. 2004.
Experiencing the Ring of Kerry on my trip to Ireland in March 2018 was a highlight for sure. While you can drive a rental car, I most recommend the ease of a bus tour. There is never a bad view of the Wild Atlantic!
In Ireland, it was all about the lamb! Standing by the Wild Atlantic on the Ring of Kerry, I held a one day old lamb. It was love at first snuggle💓 Letting go of my lamb left me in a “sea of heartbreak”. For sure, “the pleasure was worth all the pain”.
This little lamb was so generous with his smiles, nuzzles, and lamb love.
We were bonded for sure!
He even fell fast asleep in my arms. Though our moment was brief, it was an experience to treasure for years to come. Standing by the Wild Atlantic on a gorgeous Spring day with a sleeping baby lamb…
As heartbreaking as it was to say good bye, it was time to move along the beautiful and rugged Irish coastline.
It was a postcard perfect day along the shore but a little too cool for swimming, even by Irish standards.
I loved the view from the other side of the pond!
Could a day on the Ring of Kerry be complete without a stop at the Red Fox? Of course not.
And lastly we entered the world of a very enchanting forest. Undoubtedly the fairies were there somewhere!
