We go over to drive through the Ring of Beare which many of the locals say is preferred over the Ring of Kerry that many of the tourists hit when they come over. I dont think one can go wrong as its all freaking beautiful. We get over to the coast and find the Dursey Island cable car shuttling people back and forth. We opt not to go on it but start driving back and I go walking into the marsh to see some ruins and come across a goat stuck in the fence as it starts to rain.

I assume the farmer who cares for these animals would find it before any harm was done but I couldnt take any chances so I sit there and struggle with the goat to come to an understanding on how to best help it out. Eventually get it unstuck but I got a bit wet in the process which was annoying but cest la vie. Try and dry them off as we drive around and next we go to the Ballydonegan Beach in Allihies so Marion can swim around a little bit and I walk around and take pics of the lovely cove. She gets done and dried/dressed then we get in the car and continue on our path and stop by this small church in Eyeries, the St. Kentigerns Catholic church, which has a bunch of really cool, modern, beautifully made stained glass windows. Continue to drive around and the whole way is just beautiful countryside as one comes to expect here in Ireland. Eventually we wind up in Kenmare where I get to try a beer from the local brewhouse after walking around town a little bit; the town is extremely colorful and quaint and nice to take a stroll around. After we finish there, we drive back to the place to have dinner and drinks at the house as we wind down from the day.
