Relaxing at the lights. Shure, we might just stay here.

Walking along with the back wheel of a bicycle. Where’s the rest of it?

In what seems like a lifetime ago we visited Wales, exploring some of the towns and countryside near St. David’s, Newport and elsewhere. Here’s a sunrise outside St. David’s. Up early at 5am. Lovely to be out so early when the world is so quiet.

Waiting at the lights of the Grand Parade/Washington Street junction. Finn’s Corner was still open back in 2019 when I took this photo.

The Jewel of the Seas, a gigantic cruise liner operated by Royal Caribbean left Cobh in Co Cork yesterday. The Cobh Confraternity Band played music while she undocked and set off.

Tourists relaxing, having a coffee, in Valletta, Malta.

Many of the streets of Valletta are narrow but bounded by 4 or 5 storey buildings. Look up and you’ll see blue skies between the buildings.

Sitting outside at a table on a cold November day in Porto, Portugal. Before covid19 made it necessary.

Cobblestone streets in Porto, Portugal. In Cork, they’d be dug up and half the street surface replaced with tarmac.
