    We left Galway City, headed towards Clifden, our next stop, at the Eco Beach, Camping, and Caravan Park. First, a pit stop for Paul 😛 for a coffee and a sarnie, whilst I made my own in the van
    😙 ). The drive along the Connemara coast is out of this world. Full of rust coloured bogs, colourful flowers, white beaches, and turquoise water. A stop at the magical Dogs Bay and Gurteen Bay beaches ⛱️ back to back to each other. You really could be in the Caribbean!!! Molly had a good old dig, still living her best life. She will still not go in the water, despite Paul coaxing her by throwing her ball in the sea. She was having none of it, so Paul had to retrieve it instead 😆, whilst Molly watched on!
    Next, a courtesy stop at Clifden Town for a guiness in the sun before we pitch up for the night. I managed a quick detour into the local bookshop to buy a book recommended by a young American sat reading 📚 in one of the pubs in Galway
    She reminded me of my younger self, I always had my reading book in my bag (way before the distractions of mobile phones and social media) .
    We arrived at the Eco Campsite, and you could tell by Paul's face that he was not impressed. We had been considering staying for two nights, and I instantly knew that was off the cards! 🤫 He says, "It's very basic, i've only booked this site for you, I bet it's full of hippies. " 🤨 'How bloody judgemental' I thought.
    Well, we ended up staying for 3 nights, and we would have stayed longer had there been any availability. I swear Paul had a tear in his eye as he was saying bye 👋 to Chris (the owner) when we left this morning 🤣. The moral of this story is to NOT JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER!!
