Cargo pants = amazing

I got a great deal on a flight to Ireland ($480 round trip, direct EWR<->DUB). The bad news was it was supposed to rain non stop the whole 5 days I was to be there. I didn't have much water-proof or water resistant gear, so I went to a sporting good store and found the North Face convertible pants. they are lightweight, seemingly wrinkle free, water resistent, and they look presentable either as pants or shorts. You can get them online for $65, REI has a comparable product for $5 less.

From Ireland - trip #3

From now on, with the exception of dress pants, they will be the only pair I travel with.
