And at the end of the tour, as a reminder of how changing is the weather in Irleand is... a beautiful blue sky almost cloudless.

On the next day we moved further south, in search of more sun, and ended up near Drunmore East.

Like the Metal Man in Tramore would say: "Keep out good ship, keep out from me, For I am the rock of misery".
