After visiting Blarney, we headed to Killarney. I love this town. It is such a "little Irish village". We spent Thanksgiving here at a wonderful B&B I had found on Trip Advisor (which I highly recommend if you are ever planning to stay at a B&B). We walked around town and had fish and chips for Thanksgiving dinner at a local pub, along with a family from the mid-west, all wearing Green Bay Packers gear. They had come back to the pub for dinner and to watch the Packers v Lions game on tv. So, we still had our Thanksgiving dinner with football!
I wish we had pictures of Killareny itself. The night we walked around it was so rainy and windy (and dark). None of our pictures of the town turned out. Sorry!
The next day, our hosts told us we should take a short tour around Killarney National Park. We saw a waterfall, the lake, and beautiful scenery.
Our short tour turned into a 4 hour tour with a wrong turn and a back road that was very narrow and very remote. I was so thankful that Ellie was driving. I told her that I was conquering my control issues with her driving. Every ride was like a roller coaster, with not knowing what twist or turn was coming next.
