Kae - roads around there are sort of bad, but there are roads around Dingle that are much worse. At the posted speed limit most of the roads around Bantry were a doddle, although I will admit I was in no hurry. Way up in the hills the road did narrow to a single lane but I never saw anyone while up there, and got some beautiful snaps of Bantry which I hope to upload this week.

(I mean /my/ family, of course – I wouldn’t intrude on a grieving family in a time like this!)

I have family living in Castletownbere (they own the Old Bank seafood restaurant). I remember staying there as a kid. The roads just to get into Castletownbere seemed incredibly dangerous – very curvy, and mostly halfway up cliffs. I’m surprised this kind of thing doesn’t happen more often.

My cousins there are Harringtons. I wonder if I’m related in some way. Must contact the family and find out.
