From Youghal to Cork

We had a great B & B last night inYoughal. We had a wonderful meal in a restaurant that had only been open 3 weeks.  Service was excellent and it was really fine dining. We visited the oldest church in Ireland in Youghal which has been consistently used for worship since1200's.They were preparing for a service this morning too. This place also had a city wall.

Warren couldn't resist this sign

In the city of Cork.  There are some lovely streets here.

After another good nights sleep we drove to Cobh (Cove) which was right on the coast.  A huge ocean liner was in port so there were many tourists walking the streets as well as us.  Some amazing sights with all the old buildings. Found a lovely B & B right in the city. Warren just happened to ask a lass where we could find some accom for the night and she told him that she had a B & B just up the hill.
