We haven’t seen a lot of sun, but we haven’t a lot of rain (by Ireland’s standards) either. And the temperatures have been relatively mild. I think it was warmer here yesterday than in Scottsdale. Go figure.
We slept late, as usual. It doesn’t get light here until 8:30 AM. Elaine cooked breakfast. It was cloudy but clear in the afternoon. No rain and no fog. So we decided to take Grom and drive up to Conor Pass, down the other side to Castlegregory, and then back up through Camp and Annascual to Dingle, a nice circular loop. We stopped at the top of Conor Pass for some pictures. Normally buffeted by wind, the pass was oddly still. Down the other side we drove onto a beach, Kilcummin Strand, and took a leisurely walk. No campers, buses, trailers, or large vehicles of any kind allowed on the Conor Pass road! You’ll see why in the pictures.

We walked into town in the fine weather for dinner at the Chart House. I had exactly the same thing as last time. Elaine did not.

Wow, what a lovely drive and how unusual to be able to drive right onto the beach. 🚙 Looks cold, but I must tell you that it was 28° when I woke up in Scottsdale this morning. High today will be 52° . Talk about unusual. We should’ve stayed in San Juan. Nice videos of the beach but would like to see Elaine photobomb in some of them. 😀 Love the colorful pubs and the lace curtains above Paddy Brawn Brosnan’s. My husband believes that every Murphy’s Pub belongs to his relatives. Not likely since this Murphy is 50 percent Lithuanian- an Irish imposter! Ah, no, Joseph, ‘‘tis Only you and yours truly who are 100% Although I do believe we are all eligible for the Irish passport. BHLIAIN NUA SASTA !
No pictures this time Joe. Don’t know why they are not coming thru. Hopefully next time.
The pics appeared after I got out if the comments section. Great pics as usual, especially on the pass. Live all the colorful pubs. Safe travels home…..
Wow. Look at Gorm thinking she’s a beach buggy!
Beautiful drive over Conor Pass. What pictures. Nice wave and tide videos.
So many pubs in one town. Hopefully you’ll have time to get pictures of them all. I love the guy painting (?) on the side of Murphy’s Pub.
Enjoy your last few days.
