HOLIDAYS



Was on holidays recently in West Clare and West Cork fantastic places pity about the Irish weather . In Clare we stayed in Lahinch which is probably the best surfing location in Ireland spent half a day falling off before i got back into the swing of it an exhilarating sport . We also visited water world in Lahinch which was not worth the entrance fee the only thing of interest was the lobster incubation tank where you could see each stage of a lobsters development month by month and having seen how big a lobster is after one year i feel a bit guilty having slain so many in the past i would guesstimate that a one and a half pound lobster is about 10 years old which goes a long way to explaining the rarity and expense of the magnificent beast, this also is why we have to insure that Lobsters are sustainably caught in Irish waters so that Irish Lobsters can be enjoyed by generations to come. The food in Lahinch was nothing special most places had similar menus if i was to pick the best Vaughan's lodge hotel and Vaughan's anchor inn don't know if there is a connection would be the best two places to eat. While in Clare we visited the aran islands which were fantastic, the cliffs of moher and the burren all fantastic worthy of a visit.
