Well, it was another rainy and windy day. Blah. But it turned wonderful by 2 pm!! We stayed in the best little B&B where they gave us great directions, advice and were just the best with service.

We decided to shop a little today in Dingle before we drove. We were hoping it would help the rain pass. Dave found a bottle of his new favorite vodka and I found a lot more. 🙂

Once we took off, the rain was still pretty heavy but we powered trough the drive. The views were supposed to be gorgeous. We got soaked, but we still got out and walked, took photos and saw a lot of “prehistoric” dwellings.

The coast, Slea Head, looks into the ocean and was amazing. I’ll share a couple of views below…

We also had some friends asking for a snack. Dave thought it was real fun to throw them pieces of a cookie and they would fly up and grab it.

We continued our drive after stopping at a pottery shop for lunch. Beautiful work… And a really tasty lunch. By then the weather cleared up really well… Some more views. We saw a TON of rainbows!! They were amazing and the brightest I’ve ever seen.

Then we crossed the ferry which saved us about an hour of driving time. We’re in Lanniscor tonight and will see the Cliffs of Mohr tomorrow! Exciting!

Oh! And we finally saw a border collie herding sheep today! It was quick so no photos, but so fun to see!

Finally, Dave was constantly ready for the shot… Seriously. I pulled over to see a view, he woke up, got out of the car and continued shooting!

I’m in San Fran again this week to help with our new store opening. The store looks so great! But I am more excited about the opportunity I had tonight to join a photo walk hosted by PhotoJoJo.

First, PJJ is an amazing online blog and camera store where you can buy gadgets, gizmos and just fun toys. They are based here and I’ve purchased a ton of stuff from them.

Second, in case you don’t know, a photo walk is where you meet up with some other photographers and take some shots. Of the group… Of what’s around you… Of what captures your eye. So fun to meet new people and see their creativity unleashed.

Here are some of my shots. Sorry for the Instagram photo bomb. 🙂

– Grab some goodies to sample from the PhotoJoJo bag:
