Today we drove around the Ring of Kerry. Spectacular scenery that again has not made it adequately into the photographs. As seems to be always the case, we ran out of time and had to make a dash for home/dinner as the light was starting to wane. It’s a bit of a trap here as judging by the light I thought it was about 4pm and it turned out to be after 6pm. As we were still on Valentia Island at that point it was a case of getting back onto the mainland and getting back to Killorglin asap. We plugged the destination into the SatNav and the quickest route turned out to be a minor road across the middle of the loop. The road started getting narrower and narrower; higher and higher. I suggested that we shouldn’t stop for dinner but keep going as I suspected it would get worse and it would be better to have the light for such a potentially dodgy road. It was a good call. I really wanted to stop and shoot the spectacular scenery but couldn’t. We did stop very briefly at the top of the pass and eventually made it back to Killorglin after 8pm by which time we were ravenous.
