Fish of the day is Cod again today, so I try a “Full Irish” while Daisy tries smoked salmon and scrambled egg.
Weather much better today, so we plan a couple of walks. First up – Muckross Abbey and Monks Wood –at lovely circular walk. We stopped at a small car park near the Abbey where a sweet jaunting car fella tries to convince us that his services might help us, as we’ll be walking all over 3 miles if we do the round trip I describe. We explained that it is our purpose and he wishes as well on our way.
Super circular walk taking in the Abbey, a small wood and then the Muckross House gardens. We resisted the temptation of the cafe and press on to Derrycunnihy church, where we do the first three stations have a wonderful mountain track route and then returned to the car having done a further 3 miles or so. Took some superb pictures are up there too.
Then return for a quick spa – it is very busy this evening and then informal meal in the bar, where we share tempura prawns, share a giant burger and share the cheese plate. Quite substantial all in. Lovely evening. We don’t hear a squeak from the penthouse party above.
Photographs from the whole of our trip to Ireland are gathered in an album on Flickr, click here.
