Here an early morning shot.
Prejudice
2023年8月4日, スコットランド ⋅ ☁️ 10 °C
It rains a lot in Scotland. That's a common opinion. But seeing the Glen Etive waterfalls so little and dried out (still beautiful) it seems to be a prejudice. Climate change shows its faceもっと詳しく
River and Glen View

After 10 weeks in Scotland it's time to move on and queue again for a ferry. It's a tough goodbye, Scotland was so amazing!
But now it's time for Northern Ireland where I have never been before.

An (Northern) Irish welcome
2023年8月6日, 北アイルランド ⋅ ☁️ 12 °C
This early morning NI greeted us with a typical weather insanity...
From fantastic light to rain within seconds...
But Dunseverick Castle was well worth the 1 minute walk from our cottage 😉
Neighbour: The Castle

Our new accommodation is in a fantastic location. The neighbour is the Dunseverick Castle (max 1 minute walk to photo spot). And of course sea views 😊
Charge while stopping.

With a petrol car you stop for filling up. We have to learn thinking differently with an EV. We charge while we're stopping!

Along the Ballintoy coastline are many bizarrely shaped sea stacks and arches like the elephant rock. The arch looks like the skull of an owl.
THE tree

The bay itself was another film location of Game of Thrones.

The EV charging situation in Ireland (be it NI, be it RoI) is devastating. Hardly any chargers, not even 22kW, not to mention rapid chargers. And most existing ones are out of order. And it'll getもっと詳しく
旅行者It’s much less densely populated in Donegal, so you will find it even more difficult to access EV infrastructure. Also the vegan scene is limited too, however we did find the best restaurant in Donegal, with Vegan/Vegetarian options, last Friday in Ramelton, ie the Bridge Bar. You would need to book. Harvey’s Point Hotel in Donegal town is excellent, but limited too. Booking required also. And there is the Chilli Shaker Indian restaurant in Letterkenny if you are stuck. The best coffee shop is The Counter in Letterkenny. The benefit of low population density is that you will have the entire photographic location to yourself, as I did at Fanad Lighthouse, the Great Sea Arch (note: very slippery, I fell and broke my tripod head) in Pollet, Crohy Head (more sea arches), and Portsalon Beach, at sunrise or sunset. Note Murder Hole Beach car park closes before sunset.
Vegan EV TravellersThank you for the heads up! Letterkenny will be our first choice then for both eating and charging!
