Swimming at Silver Strand Beach

It was a glorious morning that started off our first day on this Irish Expedition. Perfect for a nice camp breakfast. 



It took nearly three hours of easy driving across the middle of the country before we reached the County of Galway and the delightful Silver Strand beach. It was a bit nippy there in the on shore breeze, but we couldn't pass up our first swim of the trip. It was actually surprisingly warm in the water. Certainly water that the Ogwen River!



A beach walk didn't take us far, due to big cliffs and or slippery seaweed, so we carried on to Barna, where we are now in residence with our friends, who, along with their family have welcomed us in and given us a very hospitable Irish welcome and a place to lay our heads for a few days.
