Tues May 30 - Dingle Peninsula

Breakfast at the Abbey Lodge and then in the car ride to do the loop around the Dingle Peninsula. The Ring of Kerry is the famous one, but the locals say the Dingle loop is the best, and less busy.
First stop was Inch Strand which is a weird spit of land that almost crosses the bay. It is one giant sandy beach and in the high season they surf there by the looks. It was somewhere close to low tide so the beach was easy to walk.
We stopped in Dingle which is wicked quaint and walked around. These little towns are soooo cute. And the Irish folks are very friendly and have a wonderful sense of humor. And almost no chain / franchise anything. Each little town has it's own coffee shop and pub.
Then on to Slea Head loop which is a small road that runs the perimeter of the peninsula. Back to Dingle and split a fish and Chips for lunch and chatted up the guy running the stand. He started 15 years ago with just a little coffee shack and added the fish & Chips a few years back.

Business is good with he tourist season getting longer every year.
Back to Kalarney, dinner at Sceal Eile, ice cream at Murphy's, which is a big local chain (ice cream was so-so). We had a long chat with a local on the street while a local comedic musician serenaded the street with anti-Trump songs. Sounds like they do not like their government much either, and they think ours if just crazy. I'll stay out of politics..
