Fall is in the air, the berries and the sea!


Hi everyone,

I have to tell you that two of my favorite parts of Ireland in the fall are the berries on the road when you take walks and the seals in the harbor. Both of which I enjoyed immensely yesterday on a long walk from Kinsale home. Then, if that isn't good enough, our neighbors have mostly gone back to their lives elsewhere in the world, leaving the car park empty and the area quiet - just as the sun comes out.

So how did I celebrate all this abundance? Well every few hours in the midst of work (yes I know it was Labor Day in the US but London calls later this week so I had to work today) I went out to the huge grassey area and read a new book. Sunshine, easy reading, dogs rolling in the grass, and a few little kids on the beach screaming as they played in the cold water. Life just does not get any better than this.

Love you all,
Alana
