Let me just start off by saying the weather could not have been better.
We were able to see a castle, A FAIRY FORT, an abbey, A FAIRY FORT, a cathedral, and A FAIRY FORT, all on the way to see the Cliffs of Moher. We also stopped along the coast and took some pictures next to the Atlantic Ocean. Did I mention the fairy fort? Don't get too excited; it wasn't a big deal or anything. I mean, who wants to see Tinkerbell's house? Certainly not me.

Right. Because I can't possibly describe how incredibly breathtaking everything was, I'll just show you! ... If I can figure out how to post pictures.

| I couldn't decide if Dad would be interested in seeing Irish cattle or if he would think I was crazy to have pictures of cattle on my camera. Either way, I decided I should take a picture of them. |

Jumping jellyfish! (Another set of bonus points to whomever can guess what movie that quote came from.) That took FOREVER! I don't know how often you all are going to get pictures after that ordeal. But I've given you a taste of how incredible this tour was. Simply gorgeous. It was a fantastic trip, and I can't wait to see more!
I miss you all tons! Hope you are doing well!
P.S. The quote was from The Little Mermaid. You know, you should really brush up on your Disney trivia.

LOVE THE PICTURES!!!! A FAIRY FORT?!?!! WHAT?! What is that, just out of curiousity...? Hahaha
It's technically the remains of a medieval ringfort, which were banked enclosures with the house in the middle, and I think people connected them to fairy folklore and superstition.
you GUYS, a fairy fort was of course built by fairies when they were planning on having a fairy war against a different fairy clan. Sheesh, what else would a fort be for? It would be like building a snow fort and then not having a snowball fight. ;)
The cliffs look AMAZING by the way, Maria! I want to go to there.
