Carlingford - Eire - Day 40

Carlingford - Wednesday 15th June 2011 - Day 40

Photo shows the entrance into the marina which is the one on my left.  We moved the yacht in the morning to another pontoon with a power supply and spent a lazy day in the sun trying to catch up with the communications but oncemore were beaten by the available reception.







In the evening went off for a tourist run and photoshoot of this very pretty town, quiet mid-week but very, very busy at weekends, when all around come to visit and enjoy the many bars and eating houses.

state of the Photo shows the drying harbour with the impressive ruin of King John's castle above.  We went to PJ's bar/restaurant for an evening meal, consisting of grilled oysters for starters, they were great, followed by a steak and Guiness pie, well and truly fed and watered.   To relax even more, went next door to Ma Baakers and were entertianed by the locals watching the horse racing on the tele and giving money to the barman who was taking the bets. Jack and I were picking our own horses but not for real, as we did not want to part with our money.  We strolled backed to the marina feeling very happy with the world.
