More Ireland: Dingle Peninsula and Killarney

We're still in Ireland! We had a wonderful little bus trip of the Dingle Peninsula, and we got to see a nice beach and lots of surfers riding the waves.

The coast of Dingle is just beautiful, and the sun finally came out. Isn't the water pretty?

We traveled along lots of winding roads and saw little and neat villages, we even saw some horses! Our tour guide was great! He told us lots of great stories and history of the area, and even sang some Irish songs to us!

This little building was a very early Christian church, but Jerry thought it would be a fun club house for all of his friends to play in. We think Hammie, Beanie, Sullivan, Buttons, Marlowe, and everyone else would have fun climbing the walls and running in and out of the club house!

The next day we visited Muckross house just outside of Killarney where we were staying. It was a beautiful house that Queen Victoria visited, but the owners planned for her visit for 6 years? I guess we'd better tell our friends now if we're going to visit them in 6 years!

We also toured a series of nearby buildings and typical Irish farms. Isn't this little farm house cool? We love the blue and white paint.

Nearby, we also toured Ross Castle, it is a very impressive Irish castle!

Ben really enjoyed looking at the castle, but we were tired, and didn't climb up to the very top.

We also did a long hike and visited the Torc Waterfall. The falls were really great, and the mist and spray cooled us down after our long hike.
