Pubs are still closed

Pubs are still closed as Ireland slowly comes out of yet another lockdown due to the Covid19 pandemic. The last time we unlocked fully was Christmas and the country suffered a huge spike in Covid19 infections in the following months. The difference now is that vaccinations have started and almost 28% of the population have received one dose. Hopefully it will help.

At the Inniscarra Dam

Last week was my first time visiting the Inniscarra Dam on the River Lee. It’s only 10km from where I live but the entrance to the car park is on a winding country road that’s easy to miss.The dam itself is difficult to see from the road too putting it out of mind so I think most Cork people don’t think they can visit this beautiful riverside walk.
