Sailing by

We'd rambled enough to get properly tired, so today was time for a spot of gentle recovery.  Off we went then to just south of Killarney, to hire rowing boats  and glide around serenely (for those not rowing, at least!).  We enjoyed good views over the water to Ross Castle, and even indulged in some splashy but amicable racing to get around the island in the middle of the lake (or was it a lough, technically?).
Row, row, row!  Come on now!
Then we treated ourselves to a pleasant stroll on the beach at Ross Behy, where the scenery came complete with a wrecked boat which will now, for a short period, also feature a stone circle.

For those of a rallying disposition the drive back to base at Kenmare was one of the highlights of the day - a route over the amazing Gap of Dunloe.
