Costello-Events > And off we go to Ireland! Actually, we flew on Aer Lingus but the active runaway in Boston was just outside the picture windows of the international terminal . . . looked as if you could touch the planes! How does a billion pounds rise off the ground when it appears to move so slow? Sometimes I question whether airplane travel is real.
Costello-Events > The view to the "car park" from our balcony at the manor house hotel we stayed in our first two nights in Killarney. Killarney is "tourist central" and therefore very crowded . . . but still beautiful if you can get past the crowds. There's a reason the crowds are there . . . much to do, see and enjoy.
Costello-Events > On the way to do the "Ring of Kerry" with the Gap of Dunloe and the Meeting of the Waters in Macgillycuddy's Reeks in the background.
Costello-Events > A random seaview on the Ring of Kerry. Note the cars parked on the beach.
Costello-Events > A seaview on the Ring of Kerry as the road rises. Note the farms below. There were many folks going about the business of life . . . must be wonderful to live in a theme park!
Costello-Events > For lunch we had fresh baked bread, cheeses and butter on the side of the road while driving the Ring of Kerry. The water is Dingle Bay and the land mass in the distance is the Dingle Peninsula. Cathy and I much prefer the Dingle Peninsula to the Ring of Kerry (actually the Iveragh Peninsula). Note the sheep and the farmhouse in the background . . . could you imagine living in such a magically place?
Costello-Events > My wife, Cathy.
Costello-Events > The field at the entrance to the Cahernane House hotel in Killarney was full of new born lambs and mothers.
Costello-Events > One of the reasons Killarney is "tourist central". This is Lough Leane just outside town as viewed from the Lake Hotel grounds (a wonderful place to have an early afternoon pint in the warmth of the early April sun). We had lunch here with the girls in July 1998 so just had to return . . . little had changed.
