Bantry Marina On A May Morning.

 I took this photo this morning while I was waiting for the ferry to take me to the island where I am working for a few weeks:



It could anywhere when the sun shines.  The new Marina looks great.  There are pleasure boats, fishing boats all waiting to go for a sail.

Supposed to be a gale on Thursday.  I like to live in the countryside next to  the sea.  But you are always conscious of the power of the elements.

Hopefully the sun will return along with the tourists.  

Will blog again in a day or two.

  4. Yes Mark the power of elements -sea, rain, wind and earth all determine respect. I always wanted to live next to the sea but sometimes I wish we had more shelter. The weather is very unseasonal for the month of May.

  5. Enjoy being back on Craggy Island Father Jack! No need to tell the other priests that you have a wife and two sons back on the mainland. That can be our little secret.

  8. I've not had so much as a sniff of the sea for over a year now. Must try in the next few weeks, before it gets too busy with tourists!
