Arrival in Killarney

At about 2:00 pm we took the ferry across to Kerry. The locals refer to Kerry as "the Kingdom." We see long, lovely green vistas filled with cattle, broken by low stone walls. At 4:00 pm we arrived in Killarney, going first to a high overlook to see the famous three lakes. Then Glenda and I walked on the trail leading through the national park to the center of town. We found the Irish football teams for the cathedral schools were just finishing practice. I found two girls and asked them to explain the rules for Irish football. They did so and then let me take a photo. I took photos of the cathedral, then we walked a little further downtown before turning back and retracing our steps to the hotel. A bride and groom had just gotten married and as they waited outside the reception hall, they allowed me to take their picture. We and the Dicksons had dinner with Skip and Tutti. I took a break from bland potatoes and had a delicious vegetarian Thai green curry over rice, extra spicy. I also ordered a nice Chardonnay to accompany the meal.もっと詳しく
