Skipping Cork the day before, meant that I could now take as much time as I wanted going around the Ring of Kerry. There is lots of discussion online about what direction to drive the Ring of Kerry and how long it takes. I drove counter clock-wise and easily did it in a day - 6-8 hrs.
This was one of the best parts of the trip and I highly recommend everyone else get a chance to see it.

Next stop was Portmagee, named after a pirate! Amazing.
Then I went up this random little road to see out to the Skellig rocks. It was too foggy to see, but here is what I saw along the way...first horses.
Cows in love.
Sheer cliff side facing south to France.
It was a little windy!
it wasn't foggy, or creepy, or scary at all.....
Next stop Waterville. Boring. Good for oldies.
Cool sights on the way to Sneem.
See the cow watching the bunny.
Sneem. Gesundheit.
Then I made it to the very charming and very cool town of Kenmare.
When I'm ready to calm down and live in a little village I will move here.
not sure about this one - a Chicken in a dress declaring her love for Vegetarians, but it was in a great organic vegetarian cafe. YUM.
Then I was off into the Killarney National Park. Beautiful. Unicorns, fairies, and leprechauns definitely live here.
See perfect location for a leprechaun to hide.
This called Lady's View. Bit too foggy for the full view, but still amazing.
Muckross House. On the edge of the national park and the town.
Ross Castle
Killarney. Another great Irish town. Visit and make this your homebase for everything in south-west Ireland.
Dinner after a great long day. YUM!
