Killarney Ireland


This is the view from the 35 year old mobile home we stayed in during our time in the fairytale town on Killarney. It's one of few pictures sadly, as our camera was drowned in a quick cleansing of my jacket that our child had just thrown up on.

I'd always heard that Ireland was amazingly green, but I'd just figured it was a cliche. Killarney is a small town in southwest Ireland - on the edge of the nation's largest national park. It was quite amazing - castles, ruins, mountains, lakes, and beer. Our hosts loves to take us on night walks through the most amazing scenery. Our mobile home was located behind our hosts house(an old friend of my wife's +her husband and 2 kids). It was great to have our own space after Paris, even with the pain in the ass wood burning stove. Very smoky, 3 kinds of tender, and so small that I had to wake up every 2 hours o refill it or wake up freezing.

It rained quite a bit, but it was nice to be away from a big city. The guinness is indeed better here. Sadly, another trip is winding to an end. Just one day in London before our flight back to
LA. I'm amazed we did it with a baby.
