So we all made it safely to OIST, and now after a week of adjusting I think its safe to say we are beginning to get settled here. We quite quickly got the essentials covered. Scones...
and a local...
Clearly any of our old family from UCC will notice that the scones are quite different from the classic 'bricks' we were accustomed to from the main, or the much nicer freshly baked scones from the kiwi. But these triangular delights are pretty good.
While the local has a wonderful name: The Grand Line. Remarkably when this is said aloud by a native Corkonian it really sounds like someone is saying "shall we head down to the Crane Lane." It's like we haven't left at all.
There are some most welcome new features to our new life. In our first weekend here Mossy and Steve went biking it and discovered this little place for a spot of snorkling.
Seem this won't be such a tough place to adjust to after all. Now we just need to get back to some of the science.
