Magheramór (Ma-her-a-more)

Wicklow has some gorgeous beaches. This one has a huge car park but thanks to some wank bag illegal dumpers, they had to close it. So now you have to park on the road and walk up the little lane for ten mins or so. It's not so bad (apart from the silage gauntlet at the start ... farming... ) but it's a hassle for anyone with small children. Especially as the steps down are long, steep, and precarious. But, worth it when you get  there.








What I was seeing through my sunglasses. La vie en purple.




I met a friend there today - I love how you can recognise the shape of people you know from afar - one of her friends was saying she does sea swims all year round... I revere people who do that here!

I'm not a "beach" guy by nature, but I could enjoy that place, methinks.

All I can say is Ditto....my favourite place. Maybe we'll get in one more good day before winter?

Should we start swimming in the sea everyday? Such a challenge. I did the New Year's Day swim once a couple years ago and I want to do it again this year. Join me!
