We awakened to a task to which we are not accustomed, we had to scrape snow off the windshield. Spent the morning lingering over breakfast and shopping for shoes warmer than what we needed in Florida. Spent the afternoon and evening in the warmth of Dave & Rhonda’s home. The warmest welcome of all may have been from our delightful granddaughter, Riley!
For our first adventure together on the Emerald Isle, we walked the streets of Cobh, County Cork, explored St Colman’s Cathedral, and visited the Cobh Heritage Center.
Our brief stop in Portland Port in Dorset, England yielded just enough time to get a tiny taste of the historic town of Weymouth, a Cream Tea, and a desire to return.
After a guided bus tour of the City of Belfast we visited the Titanic Belfast Museum located at the Harlan & Wolff shipyard where the great ship was built.
Me thinks you need to get a proper ice scraper for the car. The credit card solution only works for those once-in-a-decade Florida frosts. 😉
