new years surf....

Paddy and I went on a surf adventure for Newyears.... We both knew that escaping Dublin for the festivities was essential, but to trek cross country to Clare and Kerry where gale force winds were whipping everything into a frenzy was the stuff of sheer determination (or madness...)
It was freezing to be true. On one day we actually waited in the car during a hail storm before going out in the surf....

















(that man blew away like a paper in the breeze!! seriously!!)




(so did the moo cows!!)




(small print - nothing actually blew away in the surfing of new years....)
