Joyce walked the trail and wild camped with her tent, and spend some nights in accommodation. She was well looked after by many wonderful trail angels along her way. Thank you Joyce for the "rose-of-the-day" and sharing your journey with us! Below is a photograph of Joyce in the Ballycastle Tourist Office with her Ireland Way certificate and a video from "Day 3" of the trail. You can check out all 44 of Joyce's videos from her adventure on the trail on her Youtube channel.
