At the start of our way around the Kerry peninsula we stopped for lunch at a small coastal town called Kinsale. This is one of the places we could have easily stayed at a lot longer. We were lucky to get there on the day of their farmer's market which had great and colourful stalls. The town is a set of narrow streets with colourful shops. The footpath was only 18 inches wide in many places and the streets were all one way because of how narrow they were.
Here is a view along the coast of the Kerry peninsula.
The Dingle peninsula today was more mountainous and home to more sights of historical significance. We saw a fort that dated to around 200 b.c. The amount of rock in the fields meant they didn't have to go far to get raw materials for the walls that were everywhere.

Ahaha, that photo of the sheep is awesome! I just set it as the background of the work computer.
Yes, I might be at work at the moment...
Seriously though, that scenery looks amazing.
We've been getting some great rain here, the other day it rained for 24hours non-stop, it was amazing. Unfortunately, they're saying despite how much it seemed there was, it would have only added a week's supply to the dams (and that's not because it didn't get to the dams this time. They got as much as Brisbane, but just goes to show how low the dams are.)

Enjoying Ireland with you. At least you don't have to worry about which side of the road to drive on since they are so narrow.
