Ireland day 3

[kmusser]

Sorry Dublin, 2 days is all you get, we've got places to go. In the morning we Uber back over to the airport to pick up our rental car and then it's off, driving a stick, on the left, it always takes a bit getting used to, but it's mostly highway driving for the morning which is pretty easy. For a mid-day break we stop at the National Stud, a thoroughbred horse breeding farm owned by the Irish government and also the site of a lovely Japanese garden. We do the tour and also lunch, amused by the fairy doors everywhere. The rest of the day is a long and rainy drive to Kinsale, but we eventually make it to our B&B. There we are greeted by the Irish grandmother we didn't know we had. We do a little walk along the harbor front and a tasty dinner of fish & chips, but are still pretty beat and turn in early.
