We enjoyed our time in Hexham and headed north west into Scotland and an overnight stop at Port William before taking the ferry from Cairnryan to Belfast - the same day it seems that Joe Biden and Rishi Sunak had the same idea! We narrowly avoided a storm blowing in - I think we were in the calm before it as the ferry crossing was fairly flat.
We headed via Londonderry into Donegal and the ROI. There has been some 'unrest' in Derry (the "London" part, we noticed, has been scrubbed out on many signs).
Donegal is very craggy and wild looking in the area were are in - near the Glenveagh National Park and the Wild Atlantic Coast. Most of the time we have had rain but it is glorious here when the sun is out.
Some people over here have a very strong accent and are difficult to understand - and some speak Irish (Gaelic) which we obviously don't understand! Quite a lot of the signs here are only in Irish so we have had to guess what is what sometimes!
