On the tender into St. Peter Port

I love pilot boats

A cool little fortress on an island

I was out shooting that morning and liked this shot of stairs coming down from the top deck.

Tenders down

St. Peter Port on a gorgeous day

It's a Chia car

We meet Annette and one of the superb greeters from the town.

Annette is wonderful. What a great sense of humor.

Annette had four of our party act out the story of Victoria and Albert

Victoria & Albert

Lots of great stories and Annette is quite the storyteller

The mascot of Guernsey is the donkey. Smart folks. Very Democratic.

How great is Annette? She cuts her wrists for you.

And bleeds all over the place. Really freaked out some girls nearby.

Gorgeous gardens

POISON!

YIKES!

An amazing tree

Suns out...guns out

Bee serious on heather

The waterfall garden

Ferns everywhere

Not much of a waterfall

Beautiful flowers at Blarney

For Brian

More gardens

Blarney Woolen Mills–one big store, right across from the castle

In downtown Cork the tavern where we ate lunch.

Off to Kinsale

Just outside Kinsale

I love this wall

Here is a closeup--impossible to build

Just outside Kinsale

Love this shot. It's in my favorite shots from the entire trip

Love the colors in the town of Kinsale

They get better

Are these Odd Couple fans?

Now that's pink!

Took this because I love the name Hamish

And pink doors

And smart words

Something smells...
