June 17, 2005

School's out in Dingle, Ireland

After arriving in Ireland at 7:00am and trying to sleep for 3 hours on a hard airport bench my ride arrived and off we went on a whirlwind tour of the Dingle Peninsula. Narrow roads, driving on the left, hitting shrubs on the left, not me! :) We arrived in Dingle and then had more driving time to Kenmare. It was cloudy and foggy for much of the ride, but the countryside is very pretty regardless. Guinness tastes better over here, too. A bit sweeter. More images to follow--HERE

You are so right about the Guinness! I waited until I went to Ireland to taste it for the first time - glad I did, and I haven't come across a good pint since! Hope you're enjoying your trip!

Slap!!! Jayne just read this. John is back in his place. LOL. They are great hosts. And Jayne knows exactly where's she's going on a map. She helped John with directions to Fountains Abbey a little bit ago. Without her he'd be lost.

(Mind you, Jayne makes breakfast and dinner, so I've nothing bad to say. ;))

Forget maggots. John's sheep don't even have wool!! They're naked!

He didn't Jeanne ... he got them for free - some maggotts off a sheep's bottom!!

No really, there are no flies on our sheep currently!

Of course he's sat 6feet away from me currently and not only has he pinched my 12-24mm lens but computer too LOL! Currently has Jayne looking at a map of Ireland to see where he's been only Jayne being Jayne it's New Zealand they are looking at ... tells me Dublin is no longer on the map of Ireland ;))
