Dunquin Pier

Dunquin Pier, or Cé Dún Chaoin, in Co Kerry where boats to the Blasket Islands depart from. Beautiful location in the summer but right about now it’ll be a lot less hospitable. Moments before I took this photo, three girls were taking selfies and posing for photos sitting on the edge of the cliff here. Gave me vertigo watching them!

2m at the train station

These social distancing indicators are a sign of the times in 2020 and 2021. Something that anyone from any country would now recognise.

The trees on the horizon

Behind Long Strand in Co Cork, in late December. Awful weather. Cold, blustery, but there’s a great fish & chips there called The Fish Basket.

A light snow in Blarney

It snowed for about half an hour this morning. Ironically, the country could do with a heavy snow to encourage less travel.

The red cobbles

The new Shaky Bridge (Shakey Bridge?), or Daly’s Bridge, is a huge improvement over the old. The lighting makes it stand out, and it still has the shakes like the old one!

I love the cobbles on the ground nearby but the ugly concrete support under the walkway up to it leaves something to be desired. 🙁
