Back from a nice meal in a local pub and just finishing off the bottle of wine we had with said meal. I needed that after the drive today - five hours. part motorway but then on N roads and through little towns. The last hour and a half making our way through the mountains on very windy roads with a few hairpin bends thrown in. I could not believe that the speed limit on this last part was 100kmph - 80 was my top speed and less than that, to the annoyance of the following vehicles, on a fair part of the journey. We'll do it all again tomorrow, in the opposite direction.

Himself wants to go to Blarney Castle tomorrow. Trust me, he is NOT going to kiss the Blarney Stone, but we will head that way. Then it's back to Dublin for a last meal at the superb pub we found last night.

We were lucky here with lodging - a nice place right in town and a very reasonable price, compared to other places here. Kendall has recited 'Song For Ireland' in Dingle and so is now on the giddy side of morose. He's also found a major error in the book he is reading. All is just about well in our world........
