It would have been nice if it were a sunny day when we ventured to the Dingle Peninsula because I'm sure that the coastline would have been gorgeous, but we still had a good time exploring!
More tiny two-way roads!!!!!
We stopped in the Oceanworld Aquarium and even though it was pretty wimpy, it got us out of the cold and the kids still had a great time!
The touch tank...
The penguins were a big hit...we were there for feeding time also!!! The girls had a penguin checklist that gave the names of the penguins and they had to find them according to the color-coded wing-band (the girls were on the left arm and the boys on the right)...pretty fun!
We left the peninsula in time for Luke's car nap and headed to the Blasket islands and Inch beach...the girls were desperate to play in the sand! It was really pretty, but rainy, windy and cold, so we took a quick look and were on our way!
Farmlands on the coastline EVERYWHERE!
Inch beach is a popular beach in the summertime although I can't imagine the water ever getting a chance to warm up too much! Again, I was soooo glad that I thought to bring their rainboots, because they would have been miserable playing barefoot in the cold sand! They each gathered countless shells!!!! And the yellow rainboots that Luke has on were at the rental...too funny that they were his size, although he had a really hard time walking in them!! :)
There was a really cute (ridiculously over-priced) cafe right on the beach where we warmed up and had an afternoon snack.
