Green, Greener, Ireland - 4

Our planned next stop for the night was Cloughane, a rather sleepy little village. On the way there the Cliffs gave way to sand beaches and we took the chance to take a break in the white sands and put our feet into the water.

If there is a sandy beach there is a sand castle to be built.

Next morning we set out to do another cache near Brandon Point. It is here where we saw a bunch of dolphins, just amazing  to watch. We walked a little along the path up the hill until the way got to muddy and we decided turn around. On our  plan for the day was to visit the town of Dingle and have  a look at another old castle on the way to Glenbeigh.

From Brandon Point we took the road crossing the pass to Dingle. Dingle is a quite touristy place. We stayed for some ice cream and coffee. The best husband got some new flip flops and off we went to explore the island some more.

From a far we could already see a long beach, the Inch Beach, and decided it was time for another stop. Getting closer we saw that we could actually drive onto the beach. Big smiles and adventure hats on. F loved to drift on the beach - big laughs, great fun.

Next stop was another cache location, the Ballycarbery Castle. Another ruin to climb around in, amazing that it all still stands for us to enjoy.
