Castles in Kildare

Here it is. The hack I'll overshare over the next decade with any parent that will listen. Cheap digital cameras.

I spent pain staking hours hunting on Amazon for cameras that:

  1. Could be dropped.
  2. Cost less than $40
  3. Didn't have any games or extra baby dopamine in them.

It was a terrifically hard search. But eventually I came upon these powder pink gems. And wow – did the girls take to the idea.

After a rushed 2min intro on how to click the shutter, they were off. Snapping every flower, tree, wait staff they could find.

They were totally committed to the rose garden in the back of the castle, to the point that we had to drag them in when it was time for dinner. The focus, the excitement. Best thing I've bought in years.

On another note, Kilkea Castle. Stunning boutique hotel in a 12th century castle.
