1 mile in Ireland

After three weeks and a short break from each other, Brandon and I landed in Ireland. Here we are learning about cheese and preserved meats. This is quick posting to give a small view into our surroundings. Here's the walk from "our" house to the ocean. We can hear the waves from our bedroom. 
Looking forward toward the sea

Looking backward toward the house

That's Brandon Point out over Brandon Bay!


Some sea creatures on the beach, there are loads of edible varieties.



Usually crabs wash up on shores without front claws. The fishermen seem to pull the giant claws off while still at sea.
More to come soon! We'll be in NYC in August for a week, see you there.
