Well, after breakfast and start-up (and I suspect to my brother-in-law’s desperation, because we are slow to start) we set off for Newport. The After having breakfast and getting started we headed towards Newport. I suspect my brother in law got a bit impacient because we are slow to get going. Today’s plan is to do a trip to the National Parkl of Connemara, where there is a very nice track Nature Conservancy Center. When we are starting to walk it started to rain so much so that after parking in our destination we got so wet that we had to abandon the trip.
Plan B, we are going to see Kylemore Abbey, near here, but unfortunately the weather is still unspeed, we can still take a couple of pSo we resorted to Plan B, we went to see the Kylemore Abbey, just nearby, but unfortunately the weather continued without letting up. Even so, we could take a couple of pictures… but no way, we got soaked and we had to got back and get changed.
That meant that we had to continue towards Westport. Blanca y Alfonso went ahead int the car and we followed behind after the speed the traffic allowed to. When we arrived Westport, the rain seemed to stop, so we had the opportunity to take a walk without the raincoat. When we met again, the kids had a pizza, Alfonso some gnocci, Maria a Caesar’s salad and I had a peasant’s omelette at a creperie. It was very tasty, but I bet the Nutella crepe the kids ordered after was tastier! haha
After our lunch we had to say goodbye to Alfonso who had to return to Dublin for work. So we are on our own from here. We continued our journey towards Newport but it was so rainy there that we resorted to just continue our way to Achill Island.
After a couple of hours driving, it’s still raining hard and there is a rain so strong that it shakes the campervan… So when we found a campsite we decided to stay in out little our little home playing cards, Parcheesi…
I made some sandwiches for dinner and we went to bed soon hoping that tomorrow this storm will calm down.
