    May 30, 2018 in Ireland ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C

    Thick curtains so we woke at 8.40am at the Newpark Hotel Kilkenny. Huge breakfast from 9.10am then tried to sort out Saturday’s accommodation at Renvyle as the bed and breakfast advised they are not honoring the prepaid booking. Finally got away after 11am and drove to Waterford and commenced following the R675 towards Dungavan County Waterford, looking for the Waterford Greenway old railway cycling and walking trail to a local tunnel and viaduct. Purchased strawberries and took photos on the way to Durrow. The sign on the cycleway at the Durrow carpark was wrong so we walked for six kilometres when all we needed to do in that direction was walk one kilometre plus an additional three kilometres in the other. Drove to Casey’s at Baltimore at the extreme southwest end of Ireland. Arrived after 6.30pm and walked to the harbour entrance Beacon. Dinner in a pub looking at the beautiful large protected natural harbour.Read more
