Moving on today we really only had 32km to drive to Killarney. That is if you went the direct route. We decided to take the Ring of Kerry Route. Two Hundred km later we were in Killarney.
We stopped at the bog village. The cottages there had been actually lived in. They were moved to this site. One interesting thing was that peat was put first before the thatching. This helped keep the cottages warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer.
Most of the day was spent enjoying the view. We went out to see cliffs they were beautiful. After lunch we realised that there was just too much to see in one day so that we headed straight to Killarney with only a couple of stops. At one stop a the top of Coomakesta Pass, Charles spied a circle fort in the country side we had just been through. This was something we put on our list to see another day.
The road had been very bumpy today. My hip had been awful since lunch. Both of us were happy to get to the B&B. We both were very tired.
