We left lovely Dublin on a bright sunny morning and headed for our next stop Killarney, where we will drive the Ring of Kerry. On the way we had several stops.
Kilkenny, which is home to Kilkenny castle, and a lovely small town.

Next stop, Blarney, home of the world famous Blarney castle and the Blarney Stone. We didn’t stop as we were running out of time.
A little trivia for ya, mini markets with gas also have washers and dryers by the road to help yaπ

On to our new base, Killarney, the home of the Ring of Kerry.
We decided to start our tour at 6:00 AM as the tour buses are notorious for blocking parking and making the ring a nightmare. Good choice. Very little traffic and no tour buses. The Ring of Kerry is a driving tour with stops along the Irish coast at strategic spots, lovely.
Unbelievable scenery, so many sights.



On the way we visited The Kerry Cliffs, beautiful.



Cindy met some news friends. Irish cows make great cheese
πIt’s summer here in Ireland, 62 and windy, time for a swim π³

We enjoyed the drive immensely. Cindy had read that the roads were narrow and winding, after the roads we’ve seen, tour guide Cindy tore it up. No problemsππ·π



Off to Galway, where we will see the lovely Cliffs of Moher and all the sights in that area.
Slainte, to your health in Gaelic!
