DAY 7, LEG 34 - Billund to Dublin
We leave continental Europe behind and head across the North and Irish Seas towards Dublin, the capital of the Republic of Ireland. Dublin is famous as being the birthplace of Guinness but unfortunately we won't have time to try one as our next destination has opening hours defined by Mother Nature! The route today takes us out over the western coast of Denmark towards the eastern coast of the UK then across central England, along the north Wales coast and into the westerly runway at Dublin.
Parked at Billund.
