Ocean to City Rowing Race

Saturday June 8
I didn't think there would be anything more to blog about in Cobh, but as usual it is a hotbed of activity today. Another cruise ship, the Marina, is in port for the day. Aunt Nellie's Sweet Shop, right below our flat, is having a customer appreciation day, with face painting and costumed characters passing out free candy. The Ocean to City Rowing Race, part of Cork's Maritime Festival, passed through Cobh on the way to the finish line in Cork. Ladies dressed in period costumes cheered them on, with music playing from street entertainers and the bandstand.
