Killarney & Ross Castle

We rented an Airbnb apartment in Killarney.

Of course the wine came too!

Although not blessed with the best weather...

...we wandered through the town to catch a tour bus.

Destination, Ross Castle

This view reminded me of the 'marais' in la Vendée


It's the ancestral home of the O'Donoghue clan, dating back to the 15th century...

...with a lovely view over a wild & windy Lough Leane...

...appreciated by these two!

We couldn't book a tour of the castle but the visitors' room had an interesting model of the tower.

Don't be fooled by the blue skies...

...there was a torrential downpour whilst we had a spot of lunch.

Later, back to business!

 We  loved Killarney and hope to return one day.
