On a clear day, you can see the Mourne Mountains from my home town north of Dublin. Ireland's not that big a place.

Skerries/Balbriggan? Grandparents lived there

A little bit south of that - Baldoyle/Howth.

The distance between Howth and the Mournes is approximately 90 miles.

The distance between Howth and the Eastern (High) Mournes that you can just about see in the picture is roughly 50 miles. It may be a 90 mile drive, slightly shorter if you take the Carlingford Lough Ferry.

Spot the border

I can just about make out my old residence in the distance.
