Our first stop was in Galway, which is located straight across from Dublin on the east coast of Ireland. We spent a little bit of time walking around and exploring the city. Then we made our way through the wonderful Irish countryside, past fields filled with sheep and cows, castles, and hand-built stone walls. We were on a bus, but if I had been driving on my own I would have made countless stops to try to record the beauty of the landscape.
The main attraction of our trip was the Cliffs of Moher, one of the must-see sites in Ireland. It is located at the southwestern edge of the Burren region in County Clare. Pictures definitely do not do this site justice. We spent an hour and a half here just walking along the cliffs, but you could have spent all day!
One of the last stops on our trip was Poulnabrone Dolmen, a portal tomb made over 5,000 years ago!
It was truly an amazing day.
