On Sunday we were scheduled to continue up the coast, headed eventually for Doolin and the Cliffs of Moher. We took the bus to Tralee, where we'd originally planned to start out from, and followed the Wild Atlantic Way along the coast to Ballybunion. Which we just happened to pick off the map because of it was the town with a hostel that was in approximately the right place on our route for an overnight break. It happened to be a fun and interesting stop. We were the only foreigners there, though there weren't many locals either, it was mostly Irish people on vacation. This had been somewhat true in Dingle too, but there were a ton of foreign tourists there as well as the domestic vacationers. Marissa thought that if Dingle was like Cape Cod, then Ballybunion was like the Jersey shore. It's a family-oriented sort of has-been destination, with an arcade and a casino and ice cream shops, and--don't forget it's Irish--a 16th century castle ruin.    Co Kerry, Ireland -- 7/13/2014
