Ireland Day Six

Little sweetheart, we managed to pack so much into day six of our wonderful trip to Ireland and began the day by heading out on our biggest adventure - the long coastal route climb to the lighthouse at the very edge of Sheep's Head peninsula. 

It was several hours to and back in all - we nearly ran out of daylight on our return! There was no one around as we got to the most remote parts. Indeed, I feared I had gotten us lost on the way back, only to turn around and see a sign nearly hidden from the path directing us to the main road. But that was all later... 

The trek out took an hour or two until we could finally see the little lighthouse at the end. All around it was railing and a big sign saying "Danger! Do Not Cross!". Naturally, it was the first thing you did, having spotted a sweet little stone stairway on the other side. 

You sat down there, looking at the vast expanse of the Atlantic beyond and the brilliantine autumn Irish sky stretching out before you and turned back to gaze at me as I snapped this picture of you. It became the back cover of our album Of Love and Loss and is the front cover image of the book I'm writing for you. 

My gorgeous, gorgeous girl. Love you forever.
