Y'all come back now - Ireland 2016

The flowers on this trip have been amazing. I've only been to Ireland in the summer once before. We often have come here during blackberry season... well at least when we haven't been here in November. So I'm used to seeing the hedges ful of delicious blackberries. I had no idea they were packed with fuchsia and foxglove as well. !

 

 


For today's ride, we decided to take an indirect route from Dungarvan to Youghal, pronounced Y'all. 

 

 

We'd picked up a book on Cycling in Munster, which included a loop traveling up and down the Blackwater, taking in the Dromana bridge. The book has proved useful and the detour was well worth it.


 

 


 

 

 

 

Spare thatch for the cottage!

 

 
I didn't get enough exercise today.

 

 We arrived in the seaside resort of Youghal and decided to stop for coffee. While having coffee, we talked about stopping for the day. I pulled out the iPad and soon had us booked into a B&B up the road.
