Mark has been playing tour guide and showing me all around Ireland on our unexpected holiday. We've been to Dublin, Galway and along the "Wild Atlantic Way" in West Cork.
Galway to me looks like a town right out of Harry Potter.

My favorite spot so far was Cape Clear Island. We saw porpoises, whales, seals and lots of birds. We also got a great view of the Fastnet Light, which is famous among sailers because of a wild race that uses it as a marker.
