As we are still stuck with the weather, being waves off Malin of 4 - 5 meters and Force 6 winds. We decided to catch the bus to the town of Letterkenny that is positioned at the beginning of the Lough.
Letterkenny is a bustling market town and the main centre in Donegal, they have a big Tesco so we revitaled the boat at a reasonable price.
We also discovered a museum in the Town the Donegal County Museam that was very interesting. In addition to the normal exhibits of Donegal’s history. We fell lucky that they had a special exhibition for this week only addressing the Anglo Irish treaty of 1921.
Included in the exhibition are original papers from the London meetings with hand written notes from Michael Collins. Also an amusing expenses claim as he left for London.
