And the locals don’t want you to know it exists.I found it by chance. The Irish are worldfamous for being a friendly nation and yet you hesitate as you climb to the top of a hill and see a fisherman storing his tools, the dog goodnaturedly circling his feet. The camera es out. The scene is so in line with the postcard Ireland you remember seeing pinned to the wall. Walking closer you drop the camera until you39。 re close enough to simply watch and listen. The water gently touches his boat. His tools hit the dock (碼頭），making ringing noises.The dog has discovered you sitting so quietly on the hill and although he39。 s been playing in the water he knows no sense of politeness and runs toward you — only a slight delay in his step as his owner shouts out a mand. It slows his progress toward you, but only slightly. That dog is about to give you the wettest and hairiest hug you39。 ve had in weeks.The dog has opened the door to conversation now and as the dog leads you to the fisherman you glance toward the sound of an approaching car，his wife，here to pick him up and transport his catch back into town.

Well why in the world are ya traveling by yerself, you’ 11 never meet a man that way?” demands the wife. She’s a tough customer and can’t understand my answer “because I enjoy it，” evidenced by her longsuffering sigh and a muttering (喃喃自語）about “young people” .There，s a secret spot in Ireland，and I，m not going to tell you where it is.
