Starting to feel human again J We set off for what ends up
being a very big day of driving! First
off we head to Bunratty Castle. This is
set within the grounds of a ‘village’ so after exploring the castle you can
wander through the village and imagine how life would have been in years past.
Our next stop is the Cliffs of Moher. A stunning natural wonder of fabulously high
cliffs where you look out from the coast of Ireland across the Atlantic. The views are stunning … the wind is
certainly very breezy!
We now drive to Killrush where for 18 euros
we catch the car ferry to Kerry! It’s
taken a little over an hour to get here but only about 15 minutes for the
crossing. We then have another hour and
a bit to drive to Killarney where, it turns out, I booked LAST night, not
tonight! I have been booking trips all
around the world for years and this is the first time this has ever
happened! Thankfully they have a room
(Killarney Royal Hotel) and there is a car park across the road. Coffe and scones …. again! We stay in the hotel for dinner which is very
handy as feeling a little weary.
