Mobile Appetite

One of the food trailers at the Skibbereen market on the day I visited in 2019 was “Little Green Shoot”. They’re on Facebook, but haven’t updated since 2020 so they may not be operating any more. A lot has happened since then.

Dimanche. Le temps s'est amélioré, aka il y a un peu de soleil entre les averses. J'ai enfin pu prendre des photos 😊

Entre deux nuits à #skibbereen, je me balade dans les beaux environs en commençant par Lough Hyne et le mont attenant qui fournit un beau point de vue sur les environs.

C'est un lac d'eau de mer, sans apport d'eau douce, qui communique avec la mer et fluctue avec les marées. Plus ancienne réserve maritime d'Europe et lieu de recherche scientifique

West Cork for Palestine in Skibbereen

While enjoying the market in Skibbereen I spotted a march in support of Palestine and got a few photos. It was West Cork for Palestine marching. They were a small group but made up for it in noise and their presence.
