HOW CAN YOU BUY KILLARNEY

How can you buy all the stars in the sky?

How can you buy two blue Irish eyes?

How can you buy Killarney?

The park is just by the big Church. Lovely walks by the river and lakes. See the Kerry cows grazing in the fields. Enjoy Macgillicuddies Reekes in the background. If your lucky you might see an emerald green dragonfly.......

Simply, peaceful and very beautiful

OUR IRISH FRIEND

By Killarney's lake, on a lovely summer day, we played for ages with this incredible dog. No one was about just us 2 and Macgillicuddy (our name for him) so called because of the mountains in the distance.
His life ambition was to empty the lake of stones, which he scooped up from the lake bed and brought them to me one by one.
Hope he got home safe - I'm sure he did - we could still hear him barking for ages on our walk back.

 Very pretty area to visit. I have just been to Killarney in Queensland, Australia. It also, is very pretty, and was settled by the Irish from Killarney in Ireland.

 Lovely page on Killarney. Photos are beautiful, and scenery so green! But its Ireland- everything is green. Thanks for sharing.

 Joan, I just love this page! I'm looking into places to take our US visitors next spring. They want to go to Ireland for a weekend.
