13th June – Doolin
Another sunny day in Ireland – taking it easy this morning allowing Tina to recover from her migraine. We have a lie in and then undertake Tina’s favourite activity – yes washing. Tina always feels better keeping on top of the holiday washing.
Once this is up straight we can carry on with the holiday so we stroll down to the pier and after Tina takes a stumble we book the midday boat trip to the Cliffs of Moher – we think it will be much better seeing them from the water as if we were to go to the top of them all you would see would be the sea!
It’s lovely out on the water quite sunny and relatively calm, though we do hit a few waves but all in all a very pleasant hour.
Return to the campsite and drive off to O’Connor’s pub for lunch and whilst we have a very un-Irish welcome we enjoy a very nice Irish stew.
Then it’s off a short distance down the road to the Doolin cave. We are a small group (5) and two of us are French plus their translator.
The Doolin caves have a very famous stalactite – like an elaborate chandelier – only trouble was I didn’t take a camera so unless I can download something off the internet we’ll jus have to remember how fantastic it was.
Back to the campsite and sit out as it’s a glorious afternoon – cup of tea enjoying the summer. We have been very fortunate with the weather as we have had some spectacularly sunny evenings – not roasting but sufficiently warm to sit outside provided you stay out of the breeze.
Just after six we have a G&T and nibbles – it really doesn’t get much better.
