Wynns B & B, Downtown Dublin a block from the River Liffey
We flew Aer Lingus from SFO to Dublin and stayed at Wynns, a hotel Bed and Breakfast near the center of the city. Ii is about one block from the River Liffey and Temple Bar. While in Dublin we traveled to Newgrange, saw Irish dancers. spent time roaming the Temple Bar area, visited Trinity College, St. Stephan's Green and the wonderful mall. We walked the pedestrian only streets and visited as many museums as there was time. We watched Hurling on the tele. We were there about five days when we returned to the airport to pick up a rental car.
We drove to Kilkenny and helped celebrate their win at Hurling. Kilkenny is a nice town and we spent three nights there.. We then drove to The Rock of Cashel, then down through The Knockmealdown Mountains to Lismore for the night.
Then it was on to Cobh and around to Kensale. Stayed at the Old Presbytery. Then around the southern coast to Kenmare (interesting and fun place). Continuing to the next night at Castle Gregory and then over the pass into Dingle for two nights where we toured the peninsula and hiked out to the beginning of the harbor to visit the local dolphin. Then it was over the Shannon and up to the Cliffs of Mohr and a stay in Galway. Turning East we visited Clonmoccroise, stayed the night in Trim and returned to Dublin.
Took a flight to London and will cover that week next.
