A scenic tourist destination off the coast of Ireland. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The cliffs hang over verdant agrarian fields and stretches far down the windy landscape. It was amazing seeing it cause I&#8217;ve never seen anything like it in the United States. The way it steeply heads down into the rocky ocean. I had never seen that before. It was like Ireland just abruptly stopped when it met the ocean. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was amazing to look at the scenic cliffside. I liked seeing the cows grazing so close to the edge and the seagulls that rested on the rocks.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The path we walked was not too long and didn&#8217;t wear us down. Which was nice because we had a lot planned for that day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One thing to mention was the farthest edges of the cliff were walled off for safety reasons but I see no problem with that. The weather was also great. It was warm and the sky was a pristine blue with little clouds. Because of this I was able to see far out into the ocean. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One serendipitous coincedence is that the night prior I had seen The Princess Bride for the first time. One location in the movie called &#8220;The Cliffs of Insanity&#8221; was filmed at The Cliffs of Moher. Due to this, the whole time I was there the thing I kept hearing in my head was the line in the movie where a character yelled &#8220;The Cliffs of Insanity!&#8221;.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This was a great experience and I&#8217;m glad I went. It&#8217;s the kind of place you have to go to when in Ireland. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the many highlights of my trip was my visit to the cliffs of Moher.
