We spent four nights in Tullamore harbour and took things slowly (which still isn't very slow with two dogs and a baby). But we managed to run some errands such as our laundry, re-provisioning and poking around town. We couldn't dine in anywhere, but found a cafe that made a delicious latte. We had take-away every night!
On the last evening, we picked an Indian restaurant to order from. Sarah ordered online, but wasn't convinced that it had gone through. I said I was sure it had, and rode off to the restaurant. They had not received the order, but that turned out to be good. I chatted with the owner in Urdu, and he not only gave us a discount, but threw in some pickle and chutneys. The food was delicious. I highly recommend Cafe India in Tullamore!
One of my habits each day is to obsessively check our solar output and battery status. The lowest we had gotten was 95% charged. Pretty good! The spot in the harbour where we parked was shaded by a big warehouse in the evenings. This meant that charging stopped much earlier. On top of that, Monday was very dark and dreary. This meant we got very little charge that day. Still, after 36 hours, our batteries were at 90%.
Other than errands, we had a few nice walks along the canal and through the charming town. All in all, a good couple of days.
