I was exhausted from the endless driving. I thought to myself - I will just have a wee rest while we don't have to keep moving in the ferry. And I slept for an hour ;)
We woke up in the beautiful airbnb and were provided with a hearty breakfast while patting the host's cats and dogs. Unfortunately, we ended up staying longer than planned, and discovered when we started driving that we had a 6 minute buffer for our 5 hour drive down to the ferry docks in Pembroke, Wales before the ferry would close the gates for checking in - Whoops!!

| We discovered that in Wales they take good care of Ross'! |

| We got to the dock 15 minutes from departure!! This is us heading onto the boat |

| Us on board |
When we got on board we were very tired, not to mention hungry, because we hadn't had time to stop for many breaks for food (other than tea, ice creams and toilet breaks). So we went straight to the restaurant and ate a hearty roast. After that we went to sleep for a bit.

| Driving out of the boat in Rosslare, Ireland |
When we got out in Rosslare in Ireland we needed to drive to near Cloyne in County Cork, which was a 2 hour drive. The first thing we noticed was the stalls on new potatoes and strawberries beside the roads - the land of the potato famine.

We got to our airbnb, and after having a lovely tea and chat with our host, we slept like a log. The plan for tomorrow is to go to Danielle's house for a kitchen tea at 9am and then rehearsal at the church.
Till next time,
Laura xx
