Dingle, the peninsula, is a small part of this world but rich in antiquities. In our brief stay, we discovered a row of standing stones, several Ogham Stones in a stone ring fort, a multitude of ‘beehive’ huts, the Oratory of Gallarus and much more, without even trying.
This painting is from down the coast on the "Ring of Kerry" looking back on the Dingle penisula. You can see Inch the sand bar.

DingleA late night meal in the village of fresh grilled fishSteamed clams and mussels in a large rounded dish Little fishing boats were secured at the piers We were snug in a pub with a few dark beers Rustic and primitive, a jutting finger of land Dingle, more interesting than even we planned Numerous relics of the past, created from stone Before the tourists, they sat ignored and alone As the cool fog swept in from the sea We slept that night in a Slea Head B&B |
