On Sunday Jim took the car back to Hertz and so now we are without motorized carriage. We are down to public transportation be it road-train, bus, shoe leather, flip flops, or whatever. We traveled more than 1000 kms over three days and have passed by an awful lot of countryside in the process, through a lot of delightful little “tidy towns”, seen beaches, yacht clubs, grain fields, hay fields, sheep, grazing beef and dairy cattle, and charming little country houses as well as narrow roads (narrower than Tillman Territory road by a long shot), motorways, regional routes, one lane bridges, detours, and even road bowling. Jim would have had no idea what was going on had in not been for Jackie’s education about this sport prior to departure from the USA.
Jim took the bus back from the Cork airport to Kinsale and bought a round trip ticket so he can be on his way on Wednesday. After his return we went to St. Multose for Sunday church services and then down to Fishy Fish for a lunch of fish soup and salmon on a bed of lettuce. Somewhere along the way we stopped in a shoe shop and Jackie bought herself some new shoes!
