Dingle Peninsula - A Journey to the End of the Emerald Island - 6 Months in Ireland

Dingle is said to be a whole different world, or at least that's what my friends here told me. So I embarked on my final solo tour of Ireland. I rented an overpriced GoCar and headed towards Kerry. After about 2 ½ hours, I arrived at my first stop, the Connor Pass through the mountains. The road is so narrow that only one car can drive here at a time, similar problem to other places in Ireland: If someone is coming from the opposite direction, you have to reverse.

The highlight for today was supposed to be the Slea Head Drive, a narrow road along the coast. The ocean on the left, the steep mountains on the right. I flew one of my most beautiful drone flights here and explored the surroundings from above.

A little further, I arrived at Coumeenoole Beach and went for a walk along the coast when it happened: I had such a stomach ache that I seriously thought I was about to shit my pants. I ran like an old person and sometimes had to stop and lie down in the grass just to relax. It was torture, but after 40 minutes, I reached the only restaurant here, the Old Irish Farmhouse, and used the toilet. I decided to skip the final coffee, otherwise the same thing might happen again.

My final destination for Dingle was the Gallarus Oratory, a 1300-year-old church and village community, built from stones.
