Blue Day at Ballydowane

I haven't been able to get to the beach much due to other commitments but last week I had a day off and on a wonderful bright blue day I drove down there.  I got the tide times wrong and it was almost high tide but I managed a little mooch amongst lots of debris that had been deposited from the recent stormy weather.  Fittingly, lots of it was blue to match the sky.  I climbed up onto the cliff overlooking the beach and watched the tide come in. 

A car drove into the car park and parked up.  Talking to the driver on my (reluctant) way home again, I discovered that he is also a connoisseur of Ballydowne - a Ballydowaneophile I suppose.
