We're staying in a renovated barn on a dairy farm.
Mr. Baby loves it. This is our view.
It's a total change from being in the city. He can go outside and run around anytime he wants. We see cows every day, and he even got to see a one-day-old calf. There are three dogs and one cat, and did I mention the view?
It's an actual working dairy farm, and it's small -- only about 20 cows. All farms in Ireland are much smaller than US farms; the farmer here told us that a large farm would be about 200 cows, and that all the milk and meat in the country comes from family farms like this one.
Kinsale is only a short (though curvy, narrow and sometimes treacherous) drive from Cork, so we've still been able to visit Granny and other family. We also got to meet some cousins I'd never met before who live in Sandy Cove, in an amazing house with an amazing ocean view. We forgot our camera that day, urgh.
We leave tomorrow, back to Dublin. That's the plan anyway. It's such a difficult time to leave because Granny isn't well, and we're worried about her. So should I stay or should I go?
