Day 13: Rock of Cashel and Kilkenny
We woke up this morning, enjoyed our last hotel breakfast, then hopped in the car and headed for the Rock of Cashel. The first leg of our drive put us on the motorway. It was nice to have the faster driving since we hadn’t had that since our first and second day however, we have gotten quite used to the smaller roads and actually enjoy the scenery more. So, we decided that once we arrived at the Rock, we would click “avoid highways” on maps for the rest of our journey to Kilkenny.
The Rock of Cashel did not disappoint! Such beauty and really engaging stories to hear from guides and read about on sign markings.
Once back in the car, we took the “road less traveled“ and boy did we get back roads. I thought that we had already done some very narrow road driving but the rest of our trip consisted of all basically one lane road. It was very lucky that we never had to pull over quickly for someone coming in the opposite direction on the truly narrow parts! We did see horses on the side of the road at one point with a safe place to pull off and get out, so we did!
