Day 4 Ireland Cycle Tour

The last proper day of our cycling holiday unfortunately.  We decided to cycle down to the the Old Head of Kinsale and have a look out over the area where the Lustinana was went down.

Again a mix of weather; wind, sun and showers again and again.  It explains why the land is so green in this part of the world.  My father managed to lose his sweater on our trip down to the Old Head.  It was a nice ride, through open country side unfortunately the Old Head is now a golf course so it isn’t possible to get down to the end.  We did get to wander round a tower though overlooking the sea which was nice.

On the way back we picked up my father’s jumper and then lunched at Sandy Bay were a party of sea kayakers were also lunching.  After lunch a few miles and we were back to the bridge across the bay to Kinsale where we took an excursion to have a look at James Fort and pick blackberries before heading back to Kinsale.

We had hoped to do the Ghost walk this evening but unfortunately at the end of September they stop doing it on a Tuesday night so unfortunately we missed.  Anothe early night after a tiring day.
