GAP OF DUNLOE

On Saturday Lorraine, David and I did one of the things I have meant to do for 2 years - the Gap of Dunloe Tour. We caught the vintage bus in Killarney town centre, took the boat ride on the Lakes of Killarney from Ross Castle to Lord Brandon's Cottage, then took a jaunting car (horse car) ride over the mountains and through the gap to Kate KEarney's cottage. The boat ride was the highlight - wonderful scenery. The jaunting car was gorgeous but very jolting and a bit









wet - yes, rain after several days of sun. But all in all very worthwhile.
