For the next portion of our adventure, we headed more inland (though can you truly be inland on an island that you can’t get more than 75 miles – I’m making an educated guess here – from the coast?) to Co. Tipperary.
The day started off with reasonably nice weather so we took a short jaunt up the road to the Torc Waterfall in Killarney National Park before really hitting the road.
The green moss covered everything. 
Here come Mom and Dad. 
The weather turned grey and cold by the time we got to the Rock of Cashel which happens to be on the top of a windy hill. Um, it was freezing up there.
On a previous trip, we saw this abbey from afar and went down to see it. 
Each arch had many faces carved into it – apparently they were the workers that built the cathedral. 
One of the things that the Rock of Cashel is known for is its many high crosses. 
Lastly Will found another cache.
