I loved Cahir Castle. We got a guided tour. The guide talked mostly about the Castles defenses and how you could get your head cut off or have hot feces poured over your body if you were an invader. It was a hard life living and defending a Castle. It smelled bad and some of the best accommodations were in the barn with the animals to keep warm unless you were the Lord. We had lunch across the street. We are staying the next two nights at the Maldron Hotel in Cork. We went to the Waterford Crystal Factory first thing in the morning. After the tour I can see why the crystal costs so much. It is very labor intensive and takes five years to become a craftsmen at the factory and a lot of skill and practice.
