    Wexford

    16 september 2024, Ierland ⋅ ⛅ 15 °C

    Our destination today was Wexford with a couple of stops along the way. We were on actually highways for part of the trip, and it felt so strange to be going fast. Our first stop was Seal Rescue Ireland, a volunteer organization that serves all of the country. Their goal is to rescue, rehabilitate, and release at risk seals. It is a very impressive organization with many dedicated individuals contributing to its success. You can find out more at https://www.sealrescueireland.org/
    We continued on to Courtown to explore this small resort town. There were many family focused attractions, a nice boardwalk, some pleasure boats, and a wharf. We walked down to the water, and Lori got her feet wet in the Irish Sea. We drove a little further south to Cahore Beach. The beaches were amazing and stretched before us for miles. Mike decided to go for a swim and then we walked for an hour or so. He said it wasn't as cold as expected, maybe the same as Lake Huron in early June. We found sea glass, some interesting shells, and even a mermaids purse. Back in the car and more crazy little roads until we reached Wexford in the late afternoon. We enjoyed exploring Wexford, visited a few pubs, and had dinner in a Thai restaurant.
