【写真:有名なｷﾄﾗｰｽﾞ ｲﾝというﾊﾟﾌﾞ】

こんにちは.今年のｱｲﾙﾗﾝﾄﾞは雨が多いらしくじゃがいもが通常の3分の1くらいしか収穫できていないというﾆｭｰｽが1か月前ほど報道されていました.確かに,今年は雨や曇りの日が多く,夏も少し寒かったです.

2019年もあとわずか.来年の気候はもう少し穏やかになるとよいのですが.今年も何かやり残したことがないかと思い,楽しい思い出を作ろうと,小旅行に行ってきました.

場所は,ｷﾙｹﾆｰ.ﾀﾞﾌﾞﾘﾝからﾊﾞｽだと2時間半くらいかかるでしょうか.車で行けばそんなに時間はかからないかもしれません.ｷﾙｹﾆｰは観光地で,中世的な街並みが残されている,雰囲気の良いところです.

ｷﾙｹﾆｰはｱｲﾙﾗﾝﾄﾞで1324年に,最初に魔女裁判にかけられたという,(そして唯一)ｱﾘｽ.ｷﾃﾗｰという人の家があり,現在はﾊﾟﾌﾞとなっています.

ｷﾄﾗｰｽﾞ ｲﾝというﾊﾟﾌﾞで,ｶﾞｲﾄﾞﾌﾞｯｸにものっている有名なﾊﾟﾌﾞです.ﾊﾟﾌﾞがある道は,雰囲気はなんとなく,ﾀﾞﾌﾞﾘﾝのﾃﾝﾌﾟﾙﾊﾞｰのような石畳の通り.他にも数軒ﾊﾟﾌﾞが並んでいるので,独身最後のﾊﾟｰﾃｨｰなどでにぎわうようです.

その通りの先には,小さな木のおもちゃ屋さんがあったり,脇道はすごく古いけれど,本当に歴史を感じる小道があったりで,歩いていて楽しいところでした.

ｷﾙｹﾆｰは大きな町ではないので,1日もしくは,2日もあれば歩き回れるところです.有名な工芸品屋の｢ｷﾙｹﾆｰ｣その名の通り,本店がこの町にあります.ｷﾙｹﾆｰ城もとても美しく,おしゃれなｺｰﾋｰｼｮｯﾌﾟなど,風情があります.

ｱｲﾙﾗﾝﾄﾞは冬になると観光客がどっと減ってしまいますが,ここは見所の多い街なので,11月になった今でも,観光客で溢れていました.皆さんも,ﾁｬﾝｽがあればぜひ足を運んでみてくださいね.

Hello everyone. The news that Ireland in this year seems to be many rainy and the potatoes can only be harvested about one third of the usual, was reported about a month ago. Certainly, there were many rainy and cloudy days this year, and the summer was a bit cold.

Only a month left 2019. I hope the next year's climate will be milder. I thought about whether there was anything left for me to do this year, so I went on a short trip to make fun memories.

The place I chose is Kilkenny. It should be take about two and a half hours by bus from Dublin. If you go by car, it may not take much time. Kilkenny is a tourist destination and has a nice atmosphere with remaining medieval cityscape.

In Kilkenny, in 1324, There was a house of person called Alice Kiteller who is said to have been the first ( and the only) witch trial in Ireland, and now her house is a pub.

It is pub called Kitlers Inn and so famous that it is featured on most of the guide books. The street where the pub is located is a cobblestone street like a temple bar in Dublin. There are several other pubs, so it seems to fill with people for party such as bachelor party and so on.

Ahead of the street, There was a small wooden toy shop for children, and the side street was very old, but there were couple of streets which have a lot of history behind, so it was a fun place to walk.

Kilkenny is not a big town, so you can walk around in one days or two days. As its name suggests, the famous craft store "Kilkenny" has its head office in this town. It's a tasteful town as Kilkenny Castle is also very beautiful and has a fashionable coffee shop.

In Ireland, the number of tourists will decreases during the winter, but this is a town which has a lot of attractive places for tourists, so it was still busy with many tourists in November.
If you have a chance, please try and go Kilkenny.
