| View over Rathdrum (Hidden Valley Camp site is in the middle of the picture) and the rain clouds over. Lovely day...NOT. |
 |
| View looking down Wicklow Gap. The road I came up is on the left hand side of the photo (difficult to see). The wind was gale force at times and made the climb a real hard slog (with a few pit stops along the way). |
 |
| View looking over Glendalough and the Wicklow Mountains behind. http://www.glendalough.ie/ |

| At Kildare County Council in Naas I met the very smiley Sandra Fenton who kindly stamped and signed my Stage 14/15 map. http://www.agparchitects.ie/civic_kildare.html |

| At the border of Co.Laois |
 |
| Unfortunately, by the time I had huffed and puffed my way through the gale force winds on Stage 14 / 15, both Kildare and Portlaoise Tourist Information Offices were closed. |
 |
| At Portlaoise leisure centre car park ........ just about had enough. |
