Walking Killarney, Ireland

Dear Family and Friends,

After we returned from our beautiful trip around the Ring of Kerry, Chuck and I decided to walk into town and have some dinner.

I will share some photos of downtown Killarney.  This is obviously a tourist town.  We only walked up and down a few blocks before succumbing to hunger.

Here are some of the photos I made.

First off, I don't think I have shared with you photos of the deep colored hydrangeas.  I have never seen hydrangeas this dark.  They are beautiful.

A church steeple towering above the businesses just before we got into town.

The downtown is full of souvenir shops, bars, restaurants and, right now, tourists.

I was impressed with this refurbished telephone booth.  It now houses a defibrillator.  Such a clever idea.

This store gets lots of tourist traffic.  

We went into a souvenir shop and looked around.  

Here is a ceramic Celtic cross.

These cups really struck my funny bone.

Oh my!  I think I am beginning to read Irish.  😄

I know I share with you all pictures of what we consume.  If this is TMI, just let me know.

Tonight, I had a cider

and some calamari.  It was very delicious.

Chuck had a Killarney beer,

and delicious fish and chips.  

After our walk back to our hotel, I worked on blog posts and Chuck relaxed and read.  

Tomorrow...the Blarney Stone!

Love,

Nancy
