On the second day, we went to Blarney to visit the castle, stone, house, and garden. You know, obligatorily.
Blarney Castle in the shadow
Hooray! We climbed all 100 steps to the top
This was before he slipped on the stairs (not at this moment; a few minutes later)
Doorway made for small people
This is legit - there really were dangerous plants in here! But I couldn't take any pictures in fear of waking the mandrakes. (Just kidding, but there were actually mandrakes in there.)
Vine-covered tree
Statue mysteriously atop a hill of rocks
Castle on the way back from the road walk
Blarney House
We got lost coming back from Blarney and ended up at Nad, a small town that I think only had a bar. Anyway, we were already halfway to Killarney, so we decided to just keep going - to Killarney National Park. One great thing we saw going through the city before the park: a kid on a bicycle wearing a Mike Redmond jersey. In Ireland!! So that was fun.
We climbed a hill to get this great view.
Nice lil river we found
And it came with a nice lil bridge
Uh oh. Big tour buses...
Next stop...!
Safari-style
