Loch Ree

Well it's raining on and off again, so we are off again. Went into Athlone, a large town with a shopping centre. I had a Costa coffee while Rosemary shopped at Tesco. Then we parked by the castle and had crepes at a small cafe and did the tour round the castle. Very informative multimedia history of Athlone and the castle. Drove north along the west shore of Loch Ree to Galey Bay site. This was to be my first go at fly fishing. Just man versus fish and the fish won! Well at least I had an hours casting practice, until I broke my fly and it rained again.
