To be blunt, we got off the bus with the desire to get the hell out of Killarney. With our flight home coming in a few days, we thought it a good idea to base ourselves near Shannon airport. Our guidebook recommended the town of Ennis, so we stayed there. Ennis is a university town and not dependant on tourists. Nevertheless it has another evocative ruined abbey at it's centre and is lovely for walking around.
Barb and I had another wonderful meal at restaurant in the town. In Ireland, it's customary to go out for dinner relatively late (8pm or so). Restaurant owners, eager to get business at a more reasonable hour offer "early bird" specials that were a nice surprise. Also, being the only diners there, we had a great conversation with our server/restaurant co-owner.
