    Today was our last full day in Ennistymon, and we stayed local. We did a very pleasant walk along the river and backroads passing an old once Anglican Church but now a Catholic Cemetry. It was a beautiful sunny day, and after the walk, we headed for Lahinch and braved 2 swims in the rather cold but refreshing water. Pictures will show you that the beach is very different from what we are used to. 😯 . In the early evening, a friend of Mickeys cousin took us for a lovely evening stroll through the holiday town of Liscannor. Some beautiful rock pools to swim in next time. The meal ended with delicious (and too much) pub grub. Mickey and I opted for bangers and mash, and Mike had the traditional bacon, cabbage, and mash dish.Read more

    Yesterday was spent mainly packing up and driving back to Bray. A run, a swim, and a post dinner stroll with Katya and Bridie. It was wonderful to see some many people out on such a beautiful day. All ages, all sizes, and all languages just having fun till the sunsets. Early start this morning and then we made full use of efficient public transport to the airport. Flying Emirates, and so far, no delaysRead more
