10 November 08 - 11:04Four Days in the Emerald Isle - Killarney

The surrounding countryside of Killarney is beautiful - intoxicatingly so. Another castle (so I won't bore you with that one) but also beautiful walks that traverse waterfalls and valleys, lakes and forests. These truly contribute to make Ireland what it is - the Emerald Isle.

On one of these walks, Kathy and I lingered behind as the kids skipped hand in hand singing songs down the past in front of us. All of a sudden, as the kids turned a corner in front of us, we heard a crashing sound and the kids squealing in delight. They had just seen three deer pass in front of them. Kathy and I were so jealous! Just to rub it in, we heard nothing else but that story for the rest of the day.
