Day 52 - Monday, May 14th 2018: Donegal Town to Rossnowlagh 18km / Total 1139 km, 16°C, cloudy
I realised I haven't shared a room since Malin Head! I often found myself alone in the place I stay. After Donegal, there was a big road until Balintra where I expected to find a place to eat. But there was no pub, nowhere to eat, only a shop where there wasn't even a sandwich. So I bought some potatoes bread, an apple and some biscuits, and found a place to sit, near the children playground.
Then it was a little road leading to the beach. I found my campsite where there was no one at the reception. So I call the manager who gave me the code for the toilets and told me the price was 15€, and someone might come in the evening and if not I would just have to leave the money in the mailbox. So I put on my tent and walked along the beach to the village in order to find something to eat. Unfortunately, everything was closed (once again). So I got back to my tent without seeing no one.
In the morning, I found a tick in my tent, which scared me a little bit, but I didn't find it on my skin, so I hoped it was ok. And still no one at the campsite, so I decided to leave the money in the mailbox. The problem was I only had 10€ or 50€ in cash. Well, no choice I left 10€ (which is actually the usual price I pay for camping).
