More Pictures!



I have internet access again, so here are a few more pictures!

We took this picture at the Rock of Cashel, a 600 year-old cathedral that had some awesome architecture!

This shows some of the carvings along one of the altars at the Rock of Cashel

This is one of the craftsmen at the Waterford Crystal factory after taking the glass out of the furnace and making it into a vase


Here's me kissing the Blarney Stone!

Casey chilling on the Sacrificial Altar in the Blarney Castle grounds (he does what he wants)

Some amazing scenery along the southern coast

A two-lane road along the Ring of Kerry!

A view of Lough Leane and the MacGillicuddy Reeks from Lady's View in Killarney

Exploring a fort that's over 3000 years old!

Well, that's all the pictures for now! Over the past few days, as you can see, we've been to Blarney Castle and we then drove along the southern coastline of Ireland until we made it to Killarney. We spent a few days in Killarney, driving the Ring of Kerry, checking out the town, and hiking in the Killarney National Park. Tonight we're staying at the town of Tralee and tomorrow we're heading to the Dingle Peninsula to do some hiking and see some more amazing scenery!

  1. Love the shot of you stretched across the road! Mom says "don't stand so close to the edge of the cliff!".You sure have come a long way since sitting in the kitchen at Blarney Castle! Congrats! Can you speak good now? Is Casey still around since the sacrifice? Have fun and love ya, Mom and Dad.

  2. Make sure you keep to posted speed limits on those tiny roads and watch out for the motorcycles. If I recall correctly the standard speed limit is something like 60 or 70mph!
