Nice trip up the Irish coast

Following a full English breakfast on the deck in the sunshine we set of from Arklow in Southern Ireland, after a short shop for a top up on a few things and a sugar rush we set of to Dun Laoghaire (Dublin). Practising man over board but no males would volunteer so Mr. Morris (The fender) had to face it! After being amused by fisher men fishing we decide to have a go our self but didn’t succeed, once we got along side in the harbour we spruced the place up taking roles on cleaning jobs, Paul did a great effort of hovering the whole boat only for Kath to spill the sugar & cheese the next day. D.j borrowed a net of a boat next door and was amused for hours catching fish and shrimps (Kept him quite EVENTUALLY!). Steve then decided to treat us with a Chinese yum!, we walked to the Chinese and had quite a good view of Dun Laoghaire and took many pictures for memory on our phones cause silly Steve forgot the camera but most importantly remembered the money for food! Following our tea we retired to bed with full tummy’s, having to deprive poor D.j of his fishing net he returned it to the neighbour and went to bed.
