Cliffs of Moher and the Aran Islands. . . . . . . . . . .

Arriving in Galway City we immediately checked the weather forecast

and decided Wednesday was the day for our tour of the area named

 The Burren, the famous Cliffs of Moher, and of course the Aran Islands. . . . . . . .

Sunshine and clouds were promised with only a slight chance of a shower 

which thankfully didn't show up.

View from the high cliffs - a boat similar to the one we sailed on for the Aran Islands trip.

Sailing back from Inisheer, the smallest of the Aran Islands, the sea was 

quite rough however, our boat was still able to do the 'under the cliffs' part

of the journey which was spectacular and allowed us a quite different 

perspective of these huge cliffs and rock formations.

Standing 214 metres (700 feet) high and 8 km (26 miles) long, the Cliffs of Moher

 boast one of the most amazing views in Ireland.  

Started our cliff top walk here. . . . . . . . . .more pix coming, along with views of our 

lovely ride around Inisheer Island with Ronan and Molly.

MY IRISH MOMENT. . . . . . . . . .

I will share some beautiful scenery with you soon

 from here . . . . . .the Cliffs of Moher in Galway, Ireland.

Standing here in the wind was amazing.

 Earlier, we circled the rock pinnacle below, tossed

 about in a small boat, as we sailed under the cliffs, the

 seabirds, including hundreds of puffins, circling above

 our heads. 

Then, walking along the cliff top later, looking down,

 one truly felt the majesty of this remarkable area. 

I'm truly loving this beautiful country.
