Is that the big carpark beside the dolphin statue? If it is, go out and turn left and follow the signs. Theres a cracking' wee pub at the top of the town opposite a big church, great blues bar.

Now in Dingle, interesting town, probably go further out the peninsula tomorrow and then Ring of Kerry. What direction again please? Clockwise or anti clockwise?

Weather has been great so far and looks to be good for another few days.

Right pub time!

It depends on where or what you want to see, just go with the flow and take you're time and enjoy.

It hasn't changed so, I remember taking the Kids there years ago and we ended up buying a loaf of bread and a pound of ham in a shop, the resteraunts were pure extortion.

We got the same, 2 fish meals and 2 cans of Coke in Killarney yesterday for €23 and it was to die for.

Things never change! just out of recession and greed is starting to take a hold once again. See today's article in the indo. I will take my holiday money abroad and at least get value for money. Zwei Brotchen und eine bratwurst €3.

Drove around Dingle peninsula, same way as the coaches, thank ****! Beautiful scenery, took our time got some photos, stopped for something to eat.

Headed on then to the Ring of Kerry, spectacular views! carried on driving onto Sneem and now sitting at the Motorhome Parking Area. Stay tonight, might stay another night, will see how it goes.

Ring of Kerry has a load of new roads, all nice and smooth. I don't see any reason to take it in a certain direction unlike Dingle peninsula. It's mostly quite good, there is an awful stretch of rough roads and the bumps and rattles and shakes drive you a bit mad after a while! But mostly ok, some great, they seem to be spending a lot of money on the roads.

It's a bit windy up at the top of the Ring of Kerry - see pic

Left Sneem today and were heading to Cobh, but a bit to early in the week for our plans so went to Bandon Aire. 7 euro for services and 24 hour stay, filled up with water, emptied toilet etc but didn't fancy staying to we are now in Kinsale and bumped into two more craic'ers

If you ever use Bandon Aire, the cassette emptying spot is the opposite end to the parking, quite a distance with a full cassette I found out

= so empty before you park.

Bandon Aire
