After a night in Killarney, we rented a couple of bikes and set off on a bike ride that would take us 5 to 6 hours. Our first stop: Ross Castle. It was a tall and imposing figure set on rocks, on the edge of the lake. Near the castle, in Lough Leane, I made a friend: a playful little otter. The Castle itself was fitted with some sweet old cannons,but unfortunately, the castle was locked for the season. The castle itself had no ceiling, so it wasn't too hard to figure out what was going on inside and it hadn't been in use for several hundred years. We weren't there in tourist season, so we walked around it and on top of it, and all over the walls. It was loads of fun, and a leisurely amount of riding from the city. Only, that wasn't the rest of our riding for the day, we had only just begun.--Jesse
