Breakfast for the past two mornings in Killarney has included world class porridge. Cooked oats and we have secured the award winning process as well as the brand. We are now on the hunt for a five pound bag of Irish rolled oats.
Yesterday we drove to Dingle - a small fishing village.....If you look closely, I caught a seagull flying overhead.
From there we started the drive around the Ring of Dingle. The route roughly followed the cliffs and coastline. "Roughly" applies to the twists in the road and the way of life. Sheep appear to be the only business. Pastures are small and walled by the rocks pulled from the fields. How long a process amazes us because the walls are tall and everywhere.
We were fortunate because the wind was blowing but it was not too cold and while it was cloudy there were breaks in the sky and no rain.
The views went from the green pastures to more barren terrain as we reached higher elevations. We ended up back in Dingle - lunch included Dingle crab claws. I like to think from a boat in the first photo.
We took an alternate way back to Killarney through the steep and narrow Conor Pass. There were warning signs. I tired to capture the moment through the windshield - cliff on one side and oftent a narrow wall on the other. One car lane wide road and traffic in both directions.
Sandy did the wash this morning. We were able to use the laundry here at the hotel. Breakfast between the wash and dry cycles. We will stay in town to visit the forest and lakes and then head over to Limerick for the night. Looks like a nice day.
