A day in the lakes

After class and our lunch we went to sail on the three lakes  within the Killarney National Park. The Lower Lake is nearest to the town, it is studded with islands and has Muckross Abbey and Ross Castle on its eastern shore. The Lower Lake is separated from the Middle Lake (sometimes called Muckross Lake) by the wooded peninsula of Muckross. A narrow straight called the Long Range leads to the island-studded Upper Lake, which is surrounded by lush vegetation. After that, we reached the top of the mountain and enjoyed Torc Waterfall, 4km away from the city. Today the weather was good, here it means that it didn't rain much, but it was a little cool, like in autumn.Everybody is enjoying this peaceful Irish atmosphere. We are very happy to be here
