Remember the family who I had tea with in the caravan? Margaret and Ciara were leaving Killarney while I was walking out of town, so they picked me up!
When we got to their house, Martin came out and knew the exact right thing to say, "You want a Guinness?" he said.
After the beer they fed me and we sat around the dinner table talking about differences between Ireland and the US. Then Ciara got out her violin and played a few tunes. Afterwards, they brought out a Irish drum called a Bodhrán and a banjo!
The next morning, Martin drove me back to where Margaret picked me up and I walked back to their house to stay a second night.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for your hospitality and for giving me my third, fourth, and fifth Guinness in Ireland!

This is Martin. I wish I would have gotten a picture with Margaret as well, but she had to work so I didn't see her before I left. Margaret, you should send me a picture with you and the family to my email ryan@abackpackerslife.com :-) |
Although I didn't see Margaret again after dinner, she packed me a lunch to take with me! |
