Commentary

(Summary blog only.   Last full blog was Day 0368).

Drove and ferried back to Ireland after leaving Chester about 10:30 this morning.

A far faster journey to Anglesey than we had coming the other way so arrived quite early.   So decided to make use of the extra time and take a spontaneous stop off at Plas Newydd National Trust for an early lunch and a quick look round the grounds.

Straightforward sail back to Dublin afterwards – very little rolling about despite quite high seas.

Treated ourselves to dinner at “Siam” restaurant in the evening once back in Malahide
