    Dingle Peninsula Tour

    July 17, 2023 in Ireland ⋅ ☁️ 61 °F

    We took an all day (9:30am to 4pm) tour around Dingle Peninsula today. Our driver's name was Rory, and, we found out, he was a bit hung over. Had "racks" of pints watching the game yesterday. Ha! He is a local who lives in a small village with less than 800 people.
    We loved this tour for the simple fact that we got out so often. Rory had lots of information on all the stops as well. I will post pictures here that I can't recall the name of the exact location.
    Rory told us the waters are very over fished, which causes a lot of issues. We also had a big laugh about the Americans who identify as cats, and the parents that allow it. Meow.
    Rory lived in the states for 11 years because he is a master wood worker and did old wood restoration for The Kennedy's, a Shiek in Kentucky and one of the major churches in New York.
    But, as he said, home is home. So he moved back.
    His wife's mom was part of the last inhabitants of The Blasket Island.
    A fun day!
