Tuesday 18 May Dun Laogharie to Carlingford lough

A leisurely leaving this time and the wind from astern. The genoa was polled out and we were soon making a steady 8 kn reaching a maximum of 11.5 . Where was everybody ? so far on the trip we have hardly seen anybody else . As the rain was forecast we dropped the idea of sightseeing and pushed onto Ardglass where we could use proper money and afford to stock up.
Ardglass is a wonderful little harbour set amongst the rocks, with a really welcoming old fashioned Marina Master . As we moored up we could see seals playing on the rocks 50m away.


That night it rained hard and the fog horn started, we were glad we were not going anywhere the next day
