Blarney Castle and Kinsale

Hey Everyone!

Yesterday I made my way to Kinsale and the Blarney Castle for the day. Kinsale was a beautiful town for very rich people! There are many cute little shops that are very expensive. The port has many sailboats docked. Julia Roberts used to have a house in this town. I got the best carrot cake at a small bakery in town. We also got to see Fort Charles which was where the spanish Armada tried to come in to Ireland, but the British found out and attacked them when they arrived at this port.

Next we went to Blarney and saw the castle. It was a beautiful town. The castle is surrounded by a stream of water. At the top of the castle I kissed the rosetta stone. We aso went into the poisonous garden and walked around the castle grounds.

It was a successful day trip that was not too packed at all! Next weekend is the Ring of Kerry Trip! Cannot wait :-)
