They called for rain, but all I got was sunshine!

Today I woke up bright and early, and I caught a cab into Dublin.  It was an absolutely gorgeous day.  I grabbed some coffee and then went to the tourist center, where the group heading to the Cliffs of Moher got picked up by their tour guide/driver.  We got an early start, so we could drive the 2 hours clear across the country.

We made a few pit stops before reaching the Cliffs on Moher.  We stopped at a castle in the green.  Afterwards, we continued on to Corcomroe Abbey, and then we headed through the Burren where I saw a ton of rocks including a stone henge.

 

I caught a glimpse of the Atlantic on our way to Doolin to grab a bite to eat for lunch.  I met a few people on the tour, so I was able to enjoy their company throughout the trip.

After a great lunch and a drive from Doolin, we finally made it to the Cliffs of Moher.  I have never seen anything so beautiful.  The sky was bright blue with great white clouds.  The sea was a deep blue that seemed so crisp.  The world will find out soon enough whether the Cliffs of Moher will be one of the seven world wonders.  If you think it should be one of the next world wonders, then you need to VOTE!  So, click on the link and vote for the Cliffs of Moher!

After a long and wonderful day, I was able to enjoy the scenery and a little snooze on the ride back to Dublin.  The best part of my whole day is knowing that I had nothing but sunshine to follow me on my travels!
