After lunch we headed to Caherdaniel which is located on the southern coast of the peninsula. This area is well known for it beaches but also the cultural history. The stone ring fort of Caher is along the walking trail called Kerry Way. The home of Daniel O'Connell is also in this area.

The bus continued past O'Carrolls Cove Caravan Park, an Irish RV park, which looked like a great place for families to camp and enjoy the beach.

We stopped at a rest stop near the Black Valley for a restroom break and time to browse through the gift shop and watch a weaving demonstration. There was a fabulous view of the Gap of Dunloe from this spot as well.

The last photo stop of the day was at Ladies View. This was a spot with a beautiful view chosen for a picnic when Queen Victoria visited Killarney.
We headed back to Killarney through Sneem, another pretty village on the Ring of Kerry.
We arrived back in Killarney around 5:00 PM and headed back to the B&B to relax for awhile. In the evening we did some shopping for souvenirs and then went to Danny Mac Pub for dinner. Doug and I had Beef and Guinness Stew with Yorkshire pudding and then listened to some traditional music. We stopped at a couple bars to listen to the musicians and then called it an early night!!
