Artist's Paradise

As a family we found plenty to do. For example, we ate out at well known "Spaniard" Restaurant, went to the circus and visited Cork Animal Park as well as the more predictable activities of spending time on the beach, at the fun fare, and exploring James' fort on the headland. In town looking around the shops I was pleased to catch one of the area's many artists at a "moment of glory"; he sportingly posed for a photograph beside his still wet mural masterpiece.
