Captain's Log: Day 12 - Cliffs of Moher

Today was probably my second favorite day of the trip so far. We visited the legendary Cliffs of Moher.

The cliffs were simply astounding. We were standing over 600 feet above the ocean in a near vertical drop. One misstep and it is all over. There were plenty of precautionary handrails and fences but of course nobody listens to those signs and fences because they have to get close to the edge.

I, of course, was also one of those people. And I fell.

No but it was really amazing and simply breathtaking. There was even a small tower on the edge of the cliff that Kristen and I climbed to the top of to get the ultimate view of the cliffs.

After the cliffs, we made the 1.5 hour trip back to Limerick and our hotel. The area surrounding our hotel is quite shady so there will not be any late night exploring tonight.

The dinner we had was really fun. We went to a castle for a medieval dinner and entertainment. There are medieval restaurants in the United States but they do not exist in 500 year old castles and that is what made this dinner so special. It was a great way to send off our trip and our amazing experience.
