Day 7 cloghane to femorah 17k

It was a walk on the beach yesterday, an extremely long 12k beach. In fact this is the longest beach in Ireland not inch beach, we were given miss information. 

Making our way out of cloghane.

Bought yummy cinnamon rolls baked in this bakery that we later enjoyed on the beach.

Thick seaweed at the beginning.

Being harvested for the fields.

Then it was firm sand just right for a yoga pose. We were lucky that the tide was out, walking in the soft sand for miles would have been tough. A group of young English lads that we had passed earlier in the day decided on a shortcut to avoid soft sand. 

The view behind us was getting darker and darker, but we stayed ahead of the clouds and remained dry all day.

The beach went on 

And on, but eventually we got to the end of the strip, analogous to cape cod, but much smaller and were treated to a sunny evening and spectacular sunset at 9:45pm. The evenings are long here and it's often the time when the sun comes out. 

The sun is out this morning and the last leg awaits. We have a bus to catch at 3:30pm in camp so we had better get on.
