Absolutely fabulous day today.  Not only was it the first time we've managed to string four consecutive days of paddling together, but we left Tramore this morning with the help and escort of the RNLI inshore crew and lifeboat, including being waved off from the quayside.  Many thanks to Dave and Tommy and the rest of the crew.
Terrific day's paddling along the "Copper Coast" - over 30Km of cliffs, stacks, rocks and caves.  Just enough swell and clapotis to keep it interesting without being scary!.
Met up with three local paddlers who had come out to wish us good fortune  - Dermot (circumnavigated Ireland in 33 days with lots of good weather), Fitch  (who started all our connections in Tramore), and Fletch.  Ended up at the Clonea Strand campsite, which, as we are raising money for charity, we were given free.
