Day 37 - 1st August - Back to Cork

Bernie and I rise early and drive around to our old haunts – the lifeboat house – Roff’s – the view to Bear Island - all bring back fond memories of times gone by – we note the development on parts of the foreshore but also note the half finished projects that must have had designs that could not accommodate the special needs of the geriatric tiger.

Leave Baltimore – we vow to return once again in winter – we stop in Skibbereen – 10,000 people die in the famine – visit the Famine Interpretative Centre – thought provoking – how much of this is still going on!

Skibbereen to Union Hall to Glandore – we remember and remember – the pictures cannot do the area justice – a visit to West Cork must include this drive – take it slowly – stop often.
Onwards towards Rosscarberry – turn right to the Dromberg Stone Circle – Druids – what were they upto? -
