Connemara 12th

We journeyed to Letterfrack for the 12th week.

On the way down we got distracted as we crossed the Shannon at Carrick-on-Shannon, a pretty little town. Apart from the obligatory stop in Westport the trip was uneventful.

Out on the shore-line in the campsite we had discovered years ago with the kids when used the big family tent. Neither the site nor the location have changed much. There are perhaps more static vans about than before.

First couple of nights we stayed in an open field sheltered from the sea breezes. Later we moved onto the lower site when we were able to bring the van right out to the edge of the site almost sitting on the beach itself.
In the evenings as the sun set behind the islands in the bay, we caught the most glorious views.

The weather was so good, we barely moved from this location for a couple of days just enjoying beach walks and sunning ourselves.
