A Seafari Boat Trip, Kenmare, Kerry, Ireland - 3rd August 2017

After a bit of a wander around Kenmare (Ceann Mara), it's time for a boat trip as we head out to sea on the "Seafari" cruise to see wildlife, in particular a seal colony. The boat leaves from Kenmare harbour, where there's an anxious wait for the rest of the group to variously appear before the boat sets sail, and turns out to be good fun, surviving the inevitable longeurs largely thanks to the chatty and fact-packed Cap'n Birdseye at the helm. After the trip to Kenmare, we return to The Sneem for a bit, with a visit to Davida's mum - the Sneem artist Rosemary.
