On Sunday, we drove from the Bantry area, up over Caha Pass (304 meters) and through a series of rock tunnels and Moll's Gap, which brought us into Co. Kerry.
We stopped to admire the view of Killarney National Park at Ladies View.
We also stopped at Muckross House. Everyone and their brother had also decided that this Sunday afternoon was the perfect time to visit this place. The gardens are quite lovely, and the rhodies and azaleas are at their peak.
We had not traveled this way on our earlier trip, so these were new stops for us.
We then drove through Killarney. We've always heard it is a heavily touristed area, and we would have to say we're now aware of it first hand. We've never seen so many lodgings in one place. For what seemed like miles, almost every building we passed was a hotel, a guest accommodation, or a B & B. The traffic was bumper to bumper and poked along. We were quite relieved to get past Killarney and head our car toward Dingle.
