Kilkea was sweet and had a creepy legend about a wizard turning into a raven and now he returns every seven years.
We had tea there. (Oooooo scary!)
Kilkenny was a pretty cool castle but we got there too late for the tour.
No biggie (literally) wasn't as huge as it looks.
But apparently the mice are huge. Check out that hole

Once again, thanks for sharing your fantastic vacation pics. God I need to travel again...
I've actually been to that second castle, but when we were there, everything was boarded up. I guess for repair.
Forget the mouse hole. Can a human actually fit on those stairs?!
I was wondering about the stairs too.
The stairs and door are the main entrance for the mice, the hole is the emergency exit, LOL.
"Oh my god! You Kilkenny! You bastard!"
LOL
Jorge,
Checkmate!!! Please submit an application to The Evil League of Evil! Muhahahaha...
You are a real daytripper, man. I was last year in Galway and the Moher cliffs; nice irish people, amazing places... I hope be there again soon.
COOL!!!! I love castles! Especially when you can squish them with your foot!

^ the cliffs of moher are amazing alright Ack, i'm blessed i live only 30 minutes away from them, never tire of going to see them !! did you go Jorge, they are in Clare, about an hour from Dromoland where you were when you were here
Jorge,
Yes Irish tea would be scary! Unless the water is drawn from the river Boyne, which is where I think Guinness got their water from.
P.S. Dude! Don't you wipe your feet before you invade a castle?
Oh my god Kelipso, you almost made me spit out my soda when I read your post! LOL
Great pics of those awesome castles, but are you sure that the wizard from Kilkea castle didn't turn into a hurleybird instead of a raven, and might still be on the lookout for you?????
Is that Dave having tea with you?
(Sorry I couldn't resist... I'm a nerd, I know...)
I love Kilkenny castle!
You should've popped down to Cahir and taken a stroll out to the Swiss Cottage.
I've been living in Ireland 20 years and I got to see it for the first time last weekend. It's fabulous!
Speaking of Ireland... I saw this right after I read this post, thought you might get a kick out of it.

BTW - I love your blog, you make me laugh with every post. And I'm totally jealous of all your travels!

Not in the castle though, it's not for sale. I think. But if it was I would buy it and then you could come and visit me in my new, but really old, home!
I do live in Kilkenny though. So yes, I've been standing right there where you are standing in that picture! Yay me ^^
I wish I'd known that you were thre though, but since I couldn't have come anyways (I was visiting England) it wouldn't have mattered really. Thanks for sharing pictures with us, your fellow fans!
Hugs, Julia.
Great! Now I do want to visit the same castles!

But for those who love...
Time is Eternity.
