Ring of Kerry

     The Ring of Kerry was just as I imagined the land would be. With each charming village, sweeping seascape, and mountain I found my heart falling in love with this land. 

     We found ourselves taking a brief stop to view the Dog Trails. This was very interesting and was not on our itinerary, but John hooked us up:) The display was really neat. After the presentation the Shepard asked for questions from the audience. One of the most ridiculous questions was, "Can you call the sheep?" The Shepard responded, "If I could call the sheep I wouldn't need to train the dogs for two years!"

     We continued to drive through the Irish country-side and found fields full of wild yellow iris' and Lilies. 

     We made a brief photo-stop in Waterville. Charlie Chapman and Bing Crosby visited this lovely coast-side village. We travel past the village to a hilltop giving us a view of Waterville with Staigue Stone Fort just ahead of us. On the other side was a breathtaking view of the sea and the smaller islands scattered about it. 

     One day was enough to fall in love with the area, but not enough to satisfy my curiosity about the hidden wonders. 

     Should I visit Ireland again, I'll have to spend more time in the Ring of Kerry.
