April 5

Woke up to sunshine this morning & got all excited as thought I might be able to air a few of those cruise clothes but alas! it was still freezing! We had breakfast at a deli across the road from our hotel then decided to go to the Dingle Peninsular. There were other options e.g. Muckross House and the Gap of Dunloe which was a trip my grandmother, Josephine, did with her sister in 1929. My niece, Jacinta, suggested these two trips but we opted for Dingle as George isn't into much walking at this stage and it was too cold to go to the Gap by horse and cart! Pleased we made that decision as it was, again, a most beautiful drive. We think we have the best scenery in the world around the Great Ocean Rd but it does not beat some of the scenery we have seen in the last couple of days. Came home via Conor's Pass and Tralee.
Back in Killarney around 6pm, just in time to check emails etc before dinner. Then back to the same bar as the last two nights to listen to yet another singer. He was fantastic - pity we don't encourage real Irish singers in our pubs at home.
We're off to Tipperary in the morning (it's a long way!!!) Can't wait to meet up with Jacinta and other rellies from here and from Australia.
Happy Easter to you all. Judy & Brian, you will be busy with Easter services, Beverley will be praying for the Pies to win, as will Mary & the Crows!!!!! Then, of course, Jane will be crossing her fingers that Geelong lift to a higher spot on the ladder than 11th & Andre no doubt pressing for a Bombers win. Caro, you HAVE to have a team so I can mention you, too!!! To Patricia & all the Bennetts, love. And special get well wishes and love goes to Molly, still struggling after her recent fall.
