Ireland

For those of you who don't know, I recently went on the British Literary Pilgrimage. (A 3 and 1/2 week trip to Europe) We spent time in Ireland, Wales, England, and Paris. Here are some pictures from Ireland. (I'll do more posts later)

Cliffs of Moher:

This was our first day in Ireland and it was cold and windy but I was so happy to be there! The Cliffs of Moher are also the cliffs of insanity from Princess Bride.

Inishmore CLiffs:


Inishmore is an Aran Island of Ireland. We took a ferry out and biked all over the island! It was a great day!


We also went to Dublin and went to Dublin Trinity College to the Book of Kells exhibit and The Long Room (Which was my number 1 of the whole trip). It is just a beautiful long and tall room filled with books. Amazing. (No pictures allowed :(

More to come.
