The sea, she was angry, my friends.




The last thing we wanted to do after the wildest night yet on the high seas - seriously disconcerting, at times; very little sleep - was visit the Titanic Experience, even though Cobh, Ireland, was the last port before the ship set out on her ill-fated journey to America 100 years ago. They picked up 120 passengers here. 44 survived. It's not that we don't want to honor those who perished. It's just that we'd rather do it our own way, especially until our own seafaring journey is over in two days. Cheers from Kelly's, seaside in Cobh. Wish you were here. But not last night.
