• From Mizen Head to the rain 🌧️

    August 4, 2024 in Ireland ⋅ 🌬 20 °C

    The travel from Mizen Head to our next stop was relatively uneventful. We needed to try and secure a campsite really as the Ecoflow was drained... Which means no coffee 🤣

    We eventually managed to book a campsite in Glengarriff. Really pretty place, and an hour behind schedule as we were due to stay in or around Allihies, but we were excited to see that Glengarriff has a lovely quaint little town. We've had no luck in getting 'toot' (bumper stickers and patches for the camp blankets, and Andy spotted a real toot shop. So that is the plan for the morning.

    Anyway, excited about setting up camp for the first time (you're supposed to stay self contained when you 'wild' camp) we set up and planned to eat outside. Needless to say, as soon as we sat down to eat it started raining and hasn't stopped since!

    Ah well, we've been lucky with the weather so far...
