The Black Penny

Our new home for the next 8 weeks or so is a 68-foot, “motor sailor” (well a motor boat / trawler with some sort of a mast that we have yet to figure out). What can I say about the Black Penny, well, she's a diamond in the rough, answered the Kitty Kat, when asked by the captain! Better yet, a work in progress and we are definitely the workers. It should be interesting and never boring.

Work will have to wait though, as we are off on our very own Tour de Ireland. Besides the Capitan and his first mate / Engineer – Tom, have a couple more things to do before we come aboard, like finish building our bunks!

After off loading a majority of our gear onto the boat (in a small out of the way corner), and taking a few suggestions of where to go/ what to see in Ireland, we head to the newest hotel for the night. Very tired kitty indeed!
Goodnight & good luck!
