Fishguard

In the queue for the ferry, I looked to my left and saw this rather impressive looking house perched on the hillside.  The views from there must be good.

The trip across to Ireland was not totally satisfactory.  Rather a small ferry, quite a lot of people.  W suffered with a degree of motion sickness, felt better when out on deck, but on more than one occasion was driven inside by smokers using the non-smoking deck, and staff who appeared powerless to prevent it.

Our drive through Ireland in pretty unpleasant rain ended at a lovely AirBnb place.  Two spacious rooms, with a smaller but more than adequate bathroom, overlooking a pond.  Couldn't be happier with our choice for the two weeks.  And this morning the sun is shining, though our host tells us it was frosty overnight.
