Irland

Today we experienced the full range of Ireland's weather.

We started with sun and a great view, then came the wind (strength 8-9) and then the fog.

When we were down again the sun shone again.

Actually we wanted to walk the cliff path, but then the gusts of wind came and we avoided the pilgrim path, at… meer lezen

Heure we actually wanted to climb the Errigal Mounten but there were gusts of wind up to 70 km / h.

But the Ards Forest Park was a brilliant alternative.

I was here for the first time and was thrilled.

The next time there will also be a bath.

We left the hotel in pouring rain, but when we entered Tory Island the rain stopped and we were allowed to visit this wonderful island in the most beautiful weather.



The hike was 9 km. Long and pure hiking time about 3.5-4 hours.

Rathlin is just 6.5 by 1.5 kilometers, but at the end there was a Guinness in the only pub

The Carrick-a-Rede Bridge was closed, so we had to make another entry to the hike.

About half of the columns have a hexagonal cross-section, but there are also four, five, seven or eight corners. The largest of the… meer lezen

When you get off the ship you can see the tourist information, there was good information about the island and a useful map.

Right next to it is the bike rental, actually I should have realized when I saw the armada of bikes, this island is shown by bike.

Ok, next time, we went on a great hike, but the… meer lezen

En op een gegeven moment viel Komoot helaas uit.

Small city stroll in Belfast, then to the Crown.
