2022 Hardship Tour Dingle the Republic of Ireland

Extra travel day by the non flying party lead to a night it the swinging port of Holyhead!


 Day One
With a ferry crossing to Dublin on a Monday morning. The lounge bar was closed
so we had it almost to ourselves.


With the exit time from the terminal taking much longer than planned for, our meet
up at Kerry Airport was slightly later than planned. We however make the connection 
and made it to our base for the week, on the marina front in Dingle. Our only meal out
was taken at much busier bar a few doors down the road.

Day Two
 
The weather was mixed with strong winds, making the Atlantic coast both challenging 
to walk and spectacular viewing.











I was taken by the marked differences in colour 
of the, what I believe is glacial moraine.
 




Day Three

A day in and around Dingle and its marina 












Day 5

Atlantic coast day. 














Day 5

In search of an adventurer, Tralee town and museum .
Dingle marina by night.










Day 6

A section of the Kerry Way 'Dun an Oir' the site of bloody
siege in 1580 when British soldiers led by Lord Grey crushed 
Soldiers of the Desmond Rebellion.






Day 7

Towers, Lighhouse and rainbows 












 



Last Day 
Homeward bound


Thanks guys for another memorable tour, special thanks to 
Malc for being super chief and financial administrator.

Using the same show ground as last weeks Bishop Wilton Show it was the turn of The Wolds Vintage Group Rally. Today there were Static engines, bikes, cars, lorries and cars on show as well as the obligatory sales pitches you find at every show or event. I hope to have captured the feel of the event here for you and had to draw your attention to the number of ladies in the vintage tractor parade.
