Kennedy family holiday in Kerry

Members of the famous Kennedy family, here for the launch of the annual Kennedy Summer School programme in Wexford, have taken time out to visit some top tourist attractions in the south-west.

Rory Kennedy, the youngest of the 11 children of the late senator Robert and Ethel Kennedy, spent a few days in Kerry with her husband Mark and their three children.

A highlight of their stay was a day trip to Skellig Michael, a Unesco world heritage site with monastic remains dating to the seventh century and an internationally recognised seabird colony.
