What's better than splashing in the surf on a deserted beach?
My grandson and his mum are certainly having a grand time, although the water was freezing. I know because I swam in it for a couple of minutes before seizing up.
This is the deserted (apart from us, that is) beach at Castlegregory on Ireland's Dingle peninsula, affectionately known by us as the shiny shell beach due to the large number of highly polished colourful shells that seem to concentrate here.
We managed a copule of hours here in the sun before those overhead cirrus clouds, a harbinger of an approaching cold front, turned into something a bit more serious and we had to pack up before getting rained on.
This is typical West Ireland weather. Schizophrenic in the extreme!.
