Map of Ireland

We left Lorum Old Rectory heading for Ballinkeele House.  Our Last planned overnight.  From here on out it is catch-as-catch can.  I am encouraged however, by the number of B&B's that we see as we drive around the country side. We stopped in Enniscrothy for lunch and to see the sights. There was a castle there doubling as a museum so we took the tour. Lots of information about the 1798 and 1916 uprisings.  Kathy found the mementos from JFK and the Kennedy family interesting.  There was/is a strong interest in the Kennedy Family, especially here in south Ireland.

We have met lots of folks.  A couple from Copenhagen, Denmark and a couple from Iceland.  Last night we had dinner with six wonderful ladies from the Southern California (L.A.)  "Three teachers, two Liberians and a photographer" according to fearless leader Carol. (see photos below.)  She planned their trip for nearly year and they were having a grand time.
