We were going to do the Ring of Kerry but after reading the reviews of the 3 hour drive and tricky navigation, we decided to give this a miss. Next time!
Instead we went for another walk in town and found coffee and a few more knick-knacks.
We then drove to the Torc waterfall near Killarney. Great choice. Not only was it beautiful but we got our exercise in as well. 






Had lunch and completed the one hour drive to Longueville House. This is our upmarket stay. 
A short walk around the property (didn’t see the slug patrol – ducks); 

drinks in the lounge; 
and then dressed for our sumptuous dinner. Funniest thing when Wayne went to put on his good black trousers – they wouldn’t fit. For a few minutes he lamented all the drinking and eating. He then realised he had accidentally taken Matt’s trousers. Now filthy that he has lugged them around using up space in his bag (which he now needs for all his new t-shirts).




Went for a short walk to settle dinner and retired to the drawing room for after-dinner drinks. Mark had to drink a sifter of Apple brandy because they ran out of Baileys. Who would have thought an Irish Bar would run out of Baileys?
A beautiful finale to a much-needed slower day for our group of weary travellers.
