Having been to Killarney a couple of times already - we wanted to try something different - so we stopped at Muckross House's Traditional Farm. It was almost like Conner Prairie does Irish countryside with animals.Since Patrick has wanted to raise animals for some time (and he's even more serious now) - it was cool to see all the pigs, cows, sheep, and goats. Highlights included the amazing bread they made in the fireplace, the goat tied up a la Jurassic Park who would eat anything, and these little piglets - cute.
Considering this way of life was still common in some parts of Ireland up until the 1950's, it shows just how far things have changed.
