This morning, we were in Cobh (pronouced COVE, honest!), Ireland. This is the port from which the Titanic sailed on her fatal journey. We took the train for a 30 minute ride into Cork, which is the 3rd biggest city in Ireland. In Cork, we took a hop-on-hop-off bus tour that was a big disappointment. It did not go by any of the sites that we wanted to see, in spite of the advertisements. Took the train back to Cobh and explored that little town. Cobh was a lot nicer and had more beautiful scenery than did Cork. We climbed up a pretty steep hill to St. Colman Cathedral, built in 1808, which was absolutely beautiful. Looked down on the whole city and the port from up high.
Below is proof of why we always bring Craig along on our trips .... someone has to carry our stuff !!
Tonight is a formal night and then we will be in Dublin tomorrow morning. More to come ....
