Cobh, County Cork, Ireland |
In the summer of 1999 two friends and I spent three weeks traveling around Ireland. The photo above was taken looking out the window of our bed and breakfast. The QE2 (Queen Elizabeth 2) was in the harbor during our visit which I will admit was kind of cool. The photograph below is of the statue of Irish immigrant Annie Moore and her brothers. Annie was the first person to be admitted to Ellis Island when it's doors opened on January 1, 1892.
