Killarney day two!

Alright! So apparently the sun doesn't set in Ireland until 11:30 pm!! Then it rises at 4ish! Crazy! The beds were pretty hard but I was so tired it didn't matter. After our Irish supper last night three friends and I walked around Killarney. We even had to walk on the wrong side of the sidewalk. We went through all the touristy shops and I got a hoodie and a thimble. The next morning we woke up we had breakfast in the hotel and it was off to the ring of Kerry! We learned about peat/bogs. It is basically natural  Irish firewood. It is rain and decayed vegetation...but not wood but it burns longer and stinks really bad. They have their own museum! It was a small modeled Irish village. Super cool. There was also a town that has a goat celebration. They celebrate it because a goat bahhhhed and warned them that an army was attacking the town and it saved the town from being attacked. We saw lots and lots and lots and lots of sheep. We went to the bay of dingle and saw the sea of Atlantic...not to be confused with the Atlantic Ocean even though it connects to the ocean. We just drove past it because the road was not even 2 feet from the huge drop off straight to the sea. The sea had an Island in the middle called the island of youth. With an Irish legend behind it. Then we had lunch and I had a shepards pie and apple pie. It was really good :) we got back on the bus and passed a lot of ruins of different people's houses. Then we went to the Atlantic Ocean on pebble beach. There was a statue of Charlie Chaplin. And lots of pebbles. I got a green one. Why not its Ireland! We drove past Killarney park. When we are driving through this is what I hear. "Is that the Great Wall of Ireland???"(stone fences keeping the sheep in that went on forever)-Alec and "Can we drive to America from here" no Alec you can only fly across the ocean! The park was so pretty!! But the roads were sooooo curvy and up and down and really narrow with a big tour bus and I got motion sick. Good news is I didn't actually "get sick" but it was still rough. Tonight is our past night in Killarney! Tomorrow we are going to the Blarney Stone to lean over backwards and kiss it to receive the gift of gab. Then stay the night in Dublin!
