October 3, 2019 - Portlaoise, Ireland

I'm still getting used to driving the car instead of the motorcycle.  It really is different driving a car than a motorcycle.  I find it easier riding the bike than driving the car.  The narrow roads feel much more narrow than with the bike.

We drove to Abbeyleix to investigate Susie's family history.  We went to Heritage Center and had a great chat with the 2 people working there.  Sooz got some good advice and suggestions one of which was to check out the cemetery in Kilkenny, and the local bakery since we were going to be there.

The weather turned pretty nasty on the drive there getting cold, windy and rainy.  The cemetery did not pan out but the bakery was a good call.  We did a drive by of the Kilkenny Castle and some of the shops, but the weather kept us from doing much walking.
