Evening Sails at Kinsale
A grey evening in Kinsale, with a fleet of small boats out on the harbour for what looked like club racing. Most of them carried red sails, Squibs I think, a class Kinsale Yacht Club is well known for, with a few white ones mixed in. The water was almost flat,...

A grey evening in Kinsale, with a fleet of small boats out on the harbour for what looked like club racing. Most of them carried red sails, Squibs I think, a class Kinsale Yacht Club is well known for, with a few white ones mixed in. The water was almost flat, and the crews sat low and quiet as they worked their way across it. Behind them, the wooded shoreline climbed up to fields and houses on the hill, and a single dark-hulled yacht sat moored off to the side, sails down for the night. -

Pictures from my last walk in Ireland before our journey back to the states. I explored a path near Charles Fort in Kinsale with my wife. The weather was perfect and the views were great 😃
Ireland left a great impression ☘️

Last night, my wife and I celebrated our wedding anniversary by attending a cooking experience with #clarenash near #kinsale . She is famous locally for running the Nash 19 restaurant in #cork city center for 30 years.
During our time with her, she taught us how to bake our own Irish soda bread, make dishes with local ingredients, and explained how the food we were eating reflected Irish history.
We had a great time, and the food was absolutely delicious 😋

Today I rode with the bike club in the Field of Dreams charity sportive from just outside #Ballincolig to #Kinsale and the Old Head, and back (~100 km)
I didn't feel great in the morning (still dealing with some kind of illness), and it was wet and rainy outside. Luckily I had some good companions during the ride and a determination to finish since this was likely my last ride to Kinsale for the foreseeable future (my Ireland assignment is ended in a few weeks).

A Quiet Evening in Kinsale
Even on a calm evening when I took this photo, a moored boat moves about if given enough time. This long exposure shows the slight movements that show the water isn’t quite as still. There’s no wind to speak of, the surface looks like polished slate, and...

Even on a calm evening when I took this photo, a moored boat moves about if given enough time. This long exposure shows the slight movements that show the water isn't quite as still. There's no wind to speak of, the surface looks like polished slate, and yet the boat is nodding away to itself, tethered to that bright red buoy like a child trying to stand still for a school photo. -

Went on two ~60 mile / ~4000 ft ascent rides with the club this weekend.
On Friday, we went up the road that was used to ship butter from Kerry to Cork. On Sunday, we rode down to the Old Head past Kinsale and took in the sights.
It was a mix of sunny and rain on both days, with some strong wind thrown in for fun. Happy I got out on both days, but my legs are spent 😁💨

Kinsale in Full Bloom
Kinsale’s tidy towns group must work overtime and they do a fantastic job of keeping the town tidy and colourful. These flowers were in a small boat at the end of the quay and make the area look so pretty.

Kinsale’s Waterfront Serenity
If you’ve ever been to Kinsale in Co Cork, you’ll immediately recognise the house and tree in the picture above. If you go back in my archives you’ll probably find a photo of it from another angle, but it’s so nice I thought I should take another photo. 🙂
TIL that style of large, spreading tree you see dominating this Kinsale scene is likely a Cedar of Lebanon (Cedrus libani), which became incredibly fashionable to plant on Irish estates during the Georgian and Victorian periods. These trees were imported from the eastern Mediterranean and became status symbols for wealthy landowners. Having a mature Cedar of Lebanon on your property basically announced “we’ve been here long enough to grow something this impressive.” They can live for over 1,000 years and develop those distinctive horizontal, layered branches that make them instantly recognisable. The tree in this photograph is probably 150-200 years old based on its size and shape, meaning it was likely planted sometime in the early to mid-1800s when Kinsale was thriving as a fishing port and naval base. So that tree has essentially witnessed the entire modern history of the town!

When Recycling Gets Serious
This small garden caught my eye. It would be a nice space if not for the obligatory bins that every household must have. The left wall is a lovely deep blue, matching the colours of the flowers there.

The Summercove Hills
Parking up by Charles Fort is always easier than trying to get through Summercover near Kinsale. The road is very narrow and steep, both ways, if you're trying to go to the Bulman Bar.
That 10% gradient though. Oof. Not nice walking up that if you're tired!

Those yellow diamond-shaped road signs are actually part of Ireland’s relatively recent road signage system. Before the 1970s, Ireland used the older British-style circular and triangular signs, but when the country adopted the Vienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals, they switched to these diamond-shaped warning signs, making Ireland one of the few English-speaking countries to use this continental European style. The “10%” gradient warning means the road drops 10 metres for every 100 metres travelled horizontally, which is steep enough that most driving instructors would consider it “character building” for learner drivers!

ÉALÚ emergency exit
An emergency exit sign spotted in the first floor window of a building in Kinsale, Co Cork. Despite the shadows, the sign gives a clue to the internal floor plan of the building. It looks a bit out of place, but it has to be there.

Georgian sash windows like this one were originally designed as a fire safety feature themselves. The large panes and sliding mechanism made them easy escape routes during emergencies, which is why many Georgian buildings have windows that open directly onto the street rather than requiring ladders to reach. The modern exit sign is actually continuing a 300-year-old tradition of prioritising safe evacuation!
