Day 14 We were heading for County Clare!! Mum had booked a campsite next to the Cliff of Moher so whatever we did today we were ending in Doolin. It was Tom’s day to sit in the car with Granny & Grandad. Weather was very nice and we headed off. Grandad had organised to meet […]

Day 12 By the time we had packed the van up and got ourselves ready for the next stage of adventure we were about 2 hours behind. Margaret, Granny’s friend had organised for us to go to Westport House and we were staying at the campsite there, our second campsite. We said our goodbyes to […]

Day 11 Dad was back. We decided that today we would go to Ashford Castle and Cong. Grandad was very glad the driving was now left to Dad and he could just direct on where to go, basically give out orders. We headed off, all in the van again. Despacito was playing again and Dad […]

Day 10 It was an early start but a great one. I had made sandwiches the night before and we had bought loads of treats for our journey up to Dublin. Yes, we were heading to the biggest game of the year so far MAYO vs KERRY!! Grandad had surprised us with tickets and it […]

It’s getting tough to write these and not because we’ve nothing to say. We don’t have time or Wi-Fi. Since arriving in Develeash we haven’t stopped, eating, drinking and enjoying great company. Dad was heading to London for a couple of days so Mum dropped him to the airport at 7am. Her words ‘Time apart […]

Day 6 At 4:30am we woke to the noise of horrendous rain beating down on our van. It was so loud and with the wind rocking the van too, we were certainly awake. At around 6:30 Harry announced he had lost a tooth in the night and that he put it under his pillow but […]

Day 5 We were up a little earlier this morning and headed out after another great breakfast. The weather was lovely. Our plan was to leave Gleneely around 12 after visiting the Famine Museum but once we got there we knew the day would change as we didn’t want to leave. It was amazing, we […]

Day 4 A massive lie in. Orla, Tom, Harry and I slept in the van. Dillon the dog slept there too and wasn’t for leaving. Michelle had done a beautiful breakfast and by the time we had all showered it was 12:15. We then left for our big tour of Inishowen 100. Obviously, Dillon came […]

Day 3 The alarm was set for 5.30am, we all had showers and to be honest they were desperately needed. We then headed straight down to the van and guess what, we weren’t 3rd off as predicted, but about 7th. The sun was shining and Belfast looked brilliant! We found a camp site and carpark […]
