April 3

Tonight we are in Killarney! Actually sitting in a pub having just had dinner and now listening to a young guy singing traditional Irish songs. Funny thing is, his name is Michael Kennedy so with my record I'll no doubt ask a few questions before the night is out!
We are staying at a very nice B & B - checked in around 4pm and Mary made us afternoon tea with fruit scones & strawberry jam.
We left Waterford this morning after a tour of the Waterford crystal factory. Most interesting and well worth seeing. Stopped for lunch at Mary's Kaffe Cafe at Dungarvan then on through beautiful countryside to Killarney. I've not been to Killarney before and so far am most impressed - the shops look inviting and restaurants everywhere. Pity I have absolutely NO room in my suitcase to even buy a scarf!!! Maybe I'll trade a pair of shoes for something Irish before the holiday is over! Tomorrow we will do the Ring of Kerry. Weather is still cold & we even had hail this afternoon. I think snow is predicted tomorrow.
Have had emails re Molly's progress and pleased to hear she will be having rehab shortly.
