More from Uncle Tom’s visit

Tom and the kids outside the Wicklow Goal
Inside the Wicklow Goal, very creepy!
Bobby and Kelly as the goaler and his wife, who was the prison nurse
Beside one of the two lakes at Glendalough, the monastic site founded by St. Kevin.
A life of quiet prayer beside a beautiful lake and nestled between green hills…those monks were pretty smart!
Bobby and Kelly on the beach
Bobby and Uncle Tom on the beach outside the house. Bobby was so happy to see him, he couldn’t stop hugging him. Look at all those oyster shells. There was a small mountain of them on the beach, and quite a collection of them in the backyard, too. Arklow used to be famous for its oyster fishing, but due to a ban on certain types of commercial fishing in Ireland, the local fishermen have mostly gone out of business. There’s a group trying to bring it back, but many of the oyster beds have been lost.
