The sun may have been shining as we left Tralee but suddenly the skies opened as one of the forecasted thunder storms unleashed itself - and on the open roads there was nowhere to shelter. The deluge didn't last for too long but spirits were still lower than usual when we stopped briefly in Farranfore. Thankfully we had dried up considerably by the time we reached Killarney and had lunch. Rather than taking on Molls Gap, we decided to take the longer, flatter route via Glenflesk and Kilgarvan. Arrived in Kenmare nice and early where we were staying at our finest residence of the week, the Shelburne Lodge. Had dinner in Mulcahy's - excellent - and later the three girls who were cycling the final leg with us, Sandra, Michelle and Lornie, arrived down from Dublin so we went for a drink in O'Donnabhains.
