Balbriggan


June 9, 2024. This is the each at Balbriggan, Ireland, on a cool and raining day. It's easy to see the man walking along the beach, but less easy to see his dog swimming in the surf. I watched as they went back and forth playing with each other as I waited for the train back to Dublin. Today was about figuring out how the trains work and taking a short test trip up the coast; I wanted to go south but the tracks were being repaired; I also went to the wrong train station to start the day. In the end I had a nice walk through this coastal time, even dropping in on their Pride Day ceremonies. https://flic.kr/p/2pXFmGj

St. Patrick's

June 7, 2024. St. Patrick's Cathedral, in downtown Dublin. After another full day of meetings, the an online interview with Jim Groom and company, I decided to go for a short walk, which turned into a long walk, all the way into the city and ending here. Couldn't wait to get to sleep after. https://flic.kr/p/2pW85Gj

Shrimp Laksa

June 12, 2024. Flew back from Ireland today, landing in Toronto, where I had this shrimp laksa at the airport hotel. It was absolutely delicious. It was so much nicer to just hit the hotel on landing than to make my way from Toronto home. https://flic.kr/p/2pXNJB6
