We stopped in Kilkenny and did the castle tour. I found the tour a little boring, but Jason liked it. The castle was very pretty, I just duidn't think it was that interesting on the inside.

Got to Cork in the dark, found a hostel that we'd seen advertised in Dublin. The hostel was way to disgusting to stay at so we spent the next 90 minutes touring every street in cork multiple times (ie lost) looking for the HI.
