May 11th: Day Six
Today Kira and I took a bus tour to the Cliffs of Moher and Galway. Our first stop was to the Cliffs of Moher, which was about 3 and a half hours including a rest stop. We were excited driving through the countryside, we bought said it felt more like Ireland, seeing all of the bright green farmlands and animals. We tried to take a quick nap on the way to the cliffs since we had to wake up at 5am, but we could not pass up the good views on our way to one of the best views we have seen on this whole trip so far.
Once we arrived at the cliffs, we decided to start our trek to the left side. The view was absolutely breathtaking, being able to see the Atlantic Ocean crashing against the rocks, the birds flying and nesting, and one of the Aran Islands. I took many photos on my camera of the view, and of Kira because she wanted a photoshoot. There were also some cows that I snapped some pictures of them as well.
We then ventured to the right side of the cliffs, where we took some more photos, made a few tik toks because Kira loves making tik toks, and of course another photoshoot of Kira. There was this little tower that I was able to climb up and take some photos from a higher vantage point. After coming down, me and Kira ventured more to the right of the cliffs, where we saw two sheep before heading back down to the main area. We collect magnets form places we visit together, so we had to grab a magnet to remember the cliffs. We also grabbed this raspberry croissant which was really tasty.
Our next stop was Galway, which we took a pretty bumpy ride along the coast for about an hour and a half. The first thing Kira and I did was stop and grab pizza from this Italian food truck, where we got two slices of margherita pizza each. After that we walked around, filmed some tik toks, browsed some stores, and had to pay to use the restroom. Once we left Galway, we were headed back to Dublin, where we just crashed and had a good night’s sleep!
