Leaving Cork and hopping a train back to Dublin. . . . .


Packing the bags again this morning and heading to the station soon.
Train back to Dublin this afternoon through all that beautiful brilliant
 green countryside. Oh Ireland, you have stolen my heart!
Yesterday we took a bus south from Cork city to the coastal town of Kinsale where
we had a great time . . . . . . . so warm and sunny that the red-haired, pale
 skinned Irish were soon sunburned and everyone was licking an ice cream cone!
More pix later from Kinsale which was a lovely visit.

Back in the city our evening, once again, was filled with traditional music, 
on the streets and in the pubs!

  4. This looks so fun, Mary! I can't wait to read more on your impressions of Ireland. I'm wondering if you've ever been.

    Safe travels!

  5. And did you kiss the Blarney Stone Mary, as we did?
    Irish music has always been part of my life especially on St Pats Day!
    I found warmth and a great sense of fun in the people I met in Ireland.
    It seems like you have too!
