Breakfast at Carlingford

A proper Irish breakfast, complete with brown soda bread and smoked salmon.

Crab fishing in Carlingford Bay

The kids caught crabs with baited string. 1 Euro reward for biggest, smallest, and fastest run back into the bay.

Finally getting good access to the internet.

We arrived in Dublin 7:30 am, Monday, July 12. Monica met us at the airport, and we drove up to Carlingford, where we met "Auntie Nun", Granny Teresa, and two of Monica's sisters with their families.
Monica's Auntie Nun is a Sister of Mercy, and has use of the diocese's vacation house one week of the year. Here's the view from the front yard, with Slieve Foi in the background.
