Blah. Horrible day. Crack of dawn start to make the ferry. Calm seas, luckily for Chris who gets seasick, but this trip is very different to the one over. Seasoned ferry goers know to head […]

2014 – Day Forty One
After a lazy sleep in, it’s time to explore Wexford. We have a lovely spot right on the harbour. We bike in over the harbour (still loving my bike!) and take in the local sights. […]
2014 – Day Forty

2014 – Day Twenty Eight
On the road out of Westport, an accident. Not a great start to the day. We swipe a truck with our side mirror. My fault apparently. Right. In a normal vehicle, a displaced mirror would […]
