ireland!
















Ireland was not exactly what I had expected, but it was wonderful nonetheless. The people were extremely friendly and respectful, which is pretty different from the people in Spain. I loved being able to actually talk to people (in English) and of course, I loved all the Irish accents!

Ireland is famous for its fish and chips - and rightfully so! They are very fried, greasy, and delicious. We only waited about 2 hours after arriving in Dublin to try some. :)

















One day, we did a hike up to an area where we could look out over the Irish sea. It was a great hike, and the view was incredible. It had rained that morning, so it was a little muddy... but overall it was definitely worth being a little dirty.


We got lost on the way down and ended up on someone´s private property. Oops...

















There was a cross at the top of the mountain, and no one really knows why it´s there or who put it there. It was a really cool spot to sit and soak in God´s majesty.

















Our last day in Ireland, we went to the cliffs of Moher. It was an amazing view, but the weather when we were there was terrible! It was cold and windy, and there was a sudden downpour so we had to make a mad dash to the visitor center. Inside, we enjoyed ice cream and looked at the cliffs through the window. :)
