Stop #2, Dingle!
Dingle is known around Ireland for it's beauty, so we put it on our list. First we stopped at our B&B right outside of town to check-in.

| Ancient Milestone |
The giant milestone (7.5 ft tall) is in the front yard of the B&B and that's how the B&B got it's name. Back in the day it was a boundary marker for two Irish tribes, and it's equally tall as what's buried below. The couple that owned it were a WEALTH of information, and sat down with us to give us a detailed map of the town and of the 30km ring Dingle Peninsula driving tour, which is what Dingle is pretty famous for. We first walked 15 min into town for lunch!

Then we headed out with only our map for the 30km Dingle Peninsula driving tour! We saw:

| 450 A.D. Fort |
 |
| Early Christian huts "Beehives" |
 |
| Hidden Beach |

The second day in Dingle we attended a local food festival, which was perfect because we both love to eat!

Dingle, by far, was the prettiest town we visited and the most friendliest.
