Today I got the DART to Portmarnock with the intention of testing some new equipment. The day started badly as I did not waken until mid-day ( I went to bed a 6-am). On my way down to the train station it began to rain very heavy so I decided to have lunch at the ELY in the IFSC.
When I left the restaurant the weather was beautiful so I decided to head on out to Portmarnock. A few minutes before arriving the heavy (this time really heavy) rain returned.
On leaving the station I could not determine which direction I should go to get to the town, there were no signs. Of course, I chose the wrong direction. Every few minutes a low flying plane flew overhead and I noticed that they were going in the same direction as myself. This had to be wrong so I reversed direction,
On arriving just outside the town I noticed a park with five or six children feeding thousands of fat ducks. I had never so many ducks in one place before so I stopped to take a few photographs.
