Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. Medicins sans frontieres does great work; they come to the public and media eye during the big crises such as Haiti but are everywhere. You can find out about the organisation at

I decided to try canoing across ireland as its something different and i 've never heard of anyone doing it, and i like a challenge. Most of the trip will be myself and my 13 year old son meara. I am going to try and do the trip in two legs, averaging 26 km a day

Royal Canal from Dublin through Meath. Down the river Inny to join Loch Ree then the Shannon and the south through the shannon river/ lakes.

I will try and post updates on a blog http://canoingacrossireland.blogspot.com/

Wish me luck and please make a donation.
