Ireland Day 7 - Dingle Peninsula & Limerick

We got an early start, trying to beat the tourists on the way around Dingle Peninsula.  The roads were indeed a bit crazy (maybe 1.25 lanes for 2 lanes of traffic) and Chris did a great job driving again.  The Dingle Peninsula and the town of Dingle was awesome.  We had a nice lunch and great ice cream in Dingle and then headed to Limerick for another hotel night.  The hotel in Limerick turned out to be awesome and right downtown so we could walk right downtown.  Chris, Larry & Venita even enjoyed a real pub experience in Limerick.

Oh my goodness, she has a lamb on her head

The town of Dingle has a famous dolphin named Funghi.  Unfortunately we didn't see Funghi in the water, but Lily did get to ride a bronze version.
