Wednesday
Mostly (totally?) overcast. We took a ride out Slea Head Drive and took the odd phone camera pic. Nice naps in the afternoon.
Dinner was at Chart House, our dingle most favorite – no connection to US chain. Reconnected with owners Jim and Susan. Food was outstanding! Elaine had Goat Cheese and Beetroot Salad followed by Monkfish and Halibut entree. Home-made Ice Cream for dessert. I had a stunningly good Beef Tartare for my starter, delicious Rack of Lamb for my main, and Orange Crème Brûlée for dessert. We started with Kir Royales and enjoyed Tinpot Hut Pinot Noir from New Zealand for the wine. No pictures – sorry!
Then we ventured up the street to the Dingle Pub to see Richie O’Brien and Dreams of Freedom perform. He’s an old buddy. The girls from Sacred Heart College were out in force, and there was good craic all around. We sat with and chatted up a nice Irish couple as well as a French girl travelling on her own. Then we staggered home to bed.

My dinner choices is leaning in the direction of what Joe ordered. Impossible to go wrong with Creme Brulee!
Let the journey continue and have fun!
You must be exhausted from all that socializing. I went to Alvin Ailey performance at the Marcus Center with 3 friends and Todd went to his bluegrass jam with his guitar. Raining all night, now sun and warmth! Keep up your stamina, you young whippersnappers!
I kept watching the video, but couldn’t see you and Elaine on the dance floor!! How else would you possibly work off that super scrumptious dinner at Chart House?
Sorry about your camera.
Not enough Guinness in Ireland to get me on the dance floor.
Hello Weiler Cousins, great to see you on the blog! Always good seeing you back Sue. Our best to you and Jeff. Elaine, you look very happy to be enjoying the Dingle Pub again. Good pics and movie Joe. I am sure you were welcomed back with open arms.
Pictures look wonderful, we’re getting excited about our 2 nights in Dingle in October. Hope the Chart House is open! Dry weather here, lots of fires in Flag and Prescott. Cheers! Found a place in Peoria that has Kilkenny and Smithwick’s, we make sure we stop in after golf now. So smooth!! Love your blog, keep them coming!
