After a late start, we left the D'hotel and went to a place called New Grange, which is near Drogheda. It wasn't the best option but the drive there and out was beautiful. The tour was starting in 45 min and we didn't really have time for a 1.5hr your and a wait of 45 min, this place wasn't in the itinerary.
We left and drove to Kilkenny, where we walked around to see the Castle and the big church. Greg decided to stop for about 20 min at a book store, knowing we had limited time to spend in the city. You can only imagine how happy I was about this! (Not!) We Didn't really go inside the castle (I've seen too many castles in my life), then we climbed the tower at the church. Yes I have also climbed many towers all over he place but hey! That's one of my favorite things to do. Greg had a hard time since the steps were small and the clearance was short! Haha.
I've taken lots of pictures with my nice camera, so all the pictures posted here are just a few from my phone and I usually forget to take pictures with my phone. Not many of me, because I'm usually the one taking pictures, and Greg? He just walks around.
After Kilkenny, we drove 1hr to go to Rock of Cashel. It was really nice, very cold too. It's a monastery/chapel/looks like a castle. It was overlooking some beautiful land. It was a beautiful place.
Drove another 1.5hr to go to Kinsale. Which is where are sitting right now, as I'm writing this, the live jussi is about to star at the kitty Oses pub and we will wait sit back and relax.
Everything looks so green and pretty! It occurred to me you may not know who this is so I changed my name. Have a good rest of your trip! I'll stop creeping but sometimes I miss social media and this is all I got!! :-P
