IRELAND TUESDAY NOV 2008

Today we drove 112 miles around the Irish Ring of Kerry, a peninsula sticking into the Atlantic Ocean; saw ancient standing stones (ogham – 5,000 years older than the pyramids); noticed that stone walls had replaced hedges, and finished our tour by going through Killarney National Park where Kathy spotted a red deer.
Rain poured over us on our “jaunting ride” with a jarvey(driver of buggy) through Bourne Vincent National Park to Ross Castle. That evening we ate, sang and danced at a local pub.
