We left Killarney and drove to the Dingle, missed the turn and the trip ended up taking a lot longer than we expected. We found a farmers market where we bought some cheese, olives and bread and started back towards Killarney, along the coast road. about half way along we came to Inch Beach, a pretty spot, so we stopped for lunch. As we were running behind time we used the freeway and headed towards Kilkenny, driving through Tipporary, which we found a bit shabby and disappointing. When we arrived in Kilkenny the city was in the mist of a huge traffic jam, as they are changing the trafffic system. Fnally we found the B&B we were looking for and then headed to the Pub. It was built in 1253 and was really amazing. The Irish music started at around 10pm. We weren't going to stay for long, but the music was so good, we ended up not leaving the pub until after 12.30. Anyway we have a long day in ahead today, as we head for Dublin, and then back down the coast to Rosslare

You might be in Ireland for longer,I don't know when your due to come home but I hope it is not for another week as there supposed to be a big backlog already and the planes aren't going yet.
