IRELAND: REALLY GOOD TIME!

We arrive in Ireland on monday morning, after a very late ferry over from Wales. The weather couldn't have been better! the first two days they had good conditions to run the competition (John is leading at the moment, but looks like tomorrow friday could be windy and they could finish the double elimination, so fingers crossed!). The conditions were pretty decent and for the first time I really missed not being on the water! but it looked pretty cold anyways, not sure I would have enjoyed much. But although it has been pretty cold, it hasn't rain at all, so it was really nice to go exploring and enjoying walks on the beach.
Yesterday we visited Dingle, close to where we are, and the little old houses and super cute. We found a pub that was sooooo old! and Then at night, we had some traditional Irish music at Spillanes, pretty cool too! so much energy!

Llegamos a Irlanda el lunes por la mañana, en el ferry desde Gales. El tiempo ha estado perfecto! Los dos primeros días hubo buenas condiciones para hacer la competición (John va primero por ahora, pero aún se puede competir mañana que parece que puede haber viento). La verdad es que estaba bastante bueno, y por primera vez me hubiese gustado darme un baño, pero de todos modos hace tanto frío que no creo que disfrutara mucho. Pero a pesar del frío, no ha llovido, así que ha estado perfecto para dar paseíllos por la playa etc... Ayer visitamos Dingle, un pueblito cercano, y las casas súper antiguas eran súper graciosas... Encontramos un pub suuuuuper viejo... Por la noche hubo música típica Irlandesa en Spillanes, así que fué un día redondo!!!
