On Monday I had an early meeting with my two advisors here. The meeting went well and to fill some time my agency advisor, Pam, brought me and Eva to Tramore Beach. My internet connection is not letting me upload photos but the beach was incredible. The tide was low and the waves were fairly calm. On one side of the beach the shore consisted of cliffs with three light towers. The middle light tower had a man on top ("Metal Man") which men used to hop around on one leg on the last day in February on a leap year. If they did this they would supposedly be married by the end of the year. This is no longer allowed since the cliffs are eroding. On the other side of the shore there were fatal sand dunes! During the summer the beach is real touristy and busy with rollercoasters etc. We went back to the beach on Tuesday to eat at Doolan's Fish and Chips. We only got chips but they were the best that I've had since I've been here. We're planning on going to Cork this weekend since it didn't work out this past weekend.
