Hooray for you and what a perfect place to go for your first solo adventure. (I am a widow also and I applaud your courage and aplomb!) The Dingle area is truly magical. The Begleys are close kin to my now husband — his cousin owns a pub in Ballydavid, a place you would not go to unless you had a special reason. Thank you for sharing your journey.

Perfect synopsis Kate!!! Great pictures. I was with Ellen when she discovered that… raised the hair on my arms. What a beautiful and other-worldly experience.

Hi Kathy! I’m trying to edit this post but am having trouble. Maybe I’ll just leave it for now.

My experience is when you walk away for a bit and come back things seem to work out better! Good luck.
