arrange an "Irish trafic jam"
by globetrott
All over Ireland you may see plenty of postcards about an "Irish Trafic-jam" with plenty of sheep in the streets and of course you might get the idea to make your own pics of it...
Dingle is a good place for that, even though it mostly will never happen the way you expect it, so have your camera handy, just in case...
Simply try to be quicker in finding a great place to take the picture, than I did ! I simply was 2 minutes too late to climb up one of these side-walls, but I was lucky anyway somehow...
Believe me, if you want to arrange such a picture by waiting at a crossing for some sheep, it SIMPLY WILL NOT WORK, it might be the best to arrange such a picture with the help of the local farmers !
I took this picture in one of the side-roads in Dingle-island.
Garlic Burgers
by mrdarius about ???
Ok ok ok...maybe one shouldn't eat at burger joints while on vacation in Ireland, but we had just left Tatler Jack and it was late and we were starving. I can't remember the name as of right now, but it was very similar to McDonald's, but much better. If anyone who has been to Killarney or lives there knows the name of the place I'm thinking of, please let me know. GARLIC BURGER!! I'm drooling as I write this. On our way out of Killarney, we even picked up a couple of these burgers for the road. So good! Great drunken hungry food.
You can take a jaunty ride...

You can take a jaunty ride through the Gap of Dunloe. No cars are permitted there in summer (though our B&B host took us through when he visited a friend who lives back there!) It is an awesome valley. You won't forget its beauty!
Meeting of the waters
by Deefstes
The three lakes of Killarney all mix into each other at the "meeting of the waters". The whole area is splendid and there are lovely walks that you can take.
The birdge on this picture is where the waters actually meet - even though I don't quite understand how you draw a border between two lakes if they flow into each other.
The tourists flock here as much as the sheep.

I love this part of Ireland. It is green, clean, and quiet (away from the coach tours). Great outdoor opportunities await from an easy walk though the parklands surrounding Killarney to a bike ride around the Ring of Kerry. It would be difficult to find a crappy pub and the locals are friendly and helpful. Killarney has a fantastic youth hostel set in beautiful grounds. Dingle Peninsula is a photographer's dream. Views of the Atlantic dotted with islands that contain ancient stone ruins. Sheep and puffins in every shot. And did I mention that the pubs are great? Just be prepared for rain and you can't go wrong.
