Many, many farms with sheep all over the place.
We parked our car in Dingle and walked through the city center. There weren't too many shops, it was almost all pubs! Even the hardware store was also a pub! We stopped for a coffee and tea and then continued around the peninsula to Tralee. Once again, we stopped several times along the way to look at the beautiful scenery. We stopped in Tralee to get a bite to eat. Pubs are plentiful but they all don't serve food so you have to search for a restaurant! We searched the web for one and settled on Quinlins seafood. On our way through town, we came across a pub named Quinlans. Thinking this was our seafood restaurant, we went in, asked if they had food and the bartender told us they don't have food anymore but she would make us a toasted sandwich! Tom asked her what a toasted sandwich was and she laughed and told him it was a sandwich on toast! Duh! We stayed and she made us a ham and cheese sandwich. Not bad for a pub that serves no food. We left that pub and walked 10 feet and what did we find? The Quinlans seafood restaurant that we were originally trying to find.
We made our way to Cork and checked into our hotel. We searched for a restaurant and settled on a BBQ spot. I was determined to find some live Irish music tonight and I thought I found it at The Corner Pub. We went to dinner at the White Rabbit bar and BBQ, it wasn't bad BBQ! We walked around a bit and headed to The Corner Pub to listen to live traditional Irish music. The pub was crowded, the band was good, but they just sat in the front corner with no mic so you could hardly hear them! We need to find another live band that was as fun as the night in Dublin!
Tomorrow we plan to stick around Cork and check out what's happening around here!
