"Live the Cover!" Contest: Maldives

Great Travel Moment

My husband and I spent a week in a small Irish town named Miltown Malbay. Normally a small, quiet town, for one week each year in the summer its population triples in size as people from around the world come to learn traditional Irish music and dance from experts. Every night the pubs in the small town would be packed with people downing beers and listening to impromptu performances from anyone with an instrument. While we couldn't make it all the way into this pub because of the crowd, we were able to take a quick snapshot of the lively scene. It was a wonderful memory of exactly what we imagined traditional Ireland to be!
