South Along the East Coast

 

We traveled south out of Dublin on our third day. It was the first time for either of us to drive on the left side of the road. Of course the steering wheel is on the right side of the car. Our first stop was Glendalough, a beautiful mountainous region with two lakes and the 6th Century settlement of St. Kevin. It's also the home of beautiful Poulanass waterfall.

We spent the night at Killiane Castle just south of Wexford.

The following morning, we visited Tintern Abbey, a Cistercian Abbey founded around 1200.
