Our next overnight was Killarney. 3 hours to the east/north
of Kilkenny, but we took our time getting them driving south from Kilkenny,
skirting around Cork, then down to the southern seaside areas. We had lunch in the small harbor town of
Balitmore which is a yachting/sailing holiday destination for the Irish, then
made our way up the southwestern coast and the Caha Mountains. This part of Ireland has a rugged wild beauty
to it, the best scenary so far. Killarney was a fun city; if you ever get there, have dinner at The Smoke House. It specializes in fresh local seafood. We had the monkfish (Fish to Share) and it was SO good!
