Kinsale, County Cork

After a long drive we arrived at our next stop on the trip: Kinsale, an ancient sea village on the south coast. We had just enough time to check in and head down to some of the sites. Because we are a bit ahead of the tourist season, the town was a little sparse. We went up to Charles Fort, a 350 year old fort built by the English, then to a famous old bar called the Spaniard for a pint, then to a couple of shops downtown and for a rather unimpressive fish-n-chips dinner at Dino's (don't believe their sign). Now we're back at the B&B, but my Internet connection is rather poor - so no pictures yet... UPDATE: I'm putting a couple of pictures below...
