RMS Titanic pier remains in Cobh, used by the tenders.
View from where the anchored Titanic could be seen outside Cork Harbour entrance. In the memorial garden.

Just cruising out of the channel from Cobh. It's cold and windy and overcast but we always try to get out onto the balcony during sail away from any port. You can see the Cork Pilot Boat alongside us here waiting to take the pilot off the ship (yes, we've done the "Cork? He should float then" joke) but you can't see the dolphins that were here too because I was busy watching them and not taking pictures. Always a highlight on any cruise.
We've been looking around #Cobh in Ireland today; a first chance for my wife to set foot in the country. It's a very colourful place but very hilly too. Naturally, lots of historical makers given the place's associations with the Titanic and the Lusitania, and a nice memorial garden to the former along the shoreline. Tomorrow it's Dublin.

I remembered I photographed a football match in Cobh in 2007. I never posted any photos from it, but it's this one where Cobh Ramblers beat Dundalk 2-1.
Must do a proper post of those shots, but meanwhile, here's one...
The setting sun makes the sky glow a lovely yellow before the day ends in darkness.
