Donncha and I had one outing without the kids whilst in Ireland and we went to the Cliffs of Moher in Co Clare. We had been there once before the day before Claire and Rob's wedding in 2002 but a combination of the weather and time prevented us from going for a walk. This time we paid for our 12 Euro entry and took all the pictures. The beauty of such cliff walks are breathtaking but they are also very scary which was why we were relieved that a slate stone barrier has been built to keep the over-curious tourist away from the edge which also explains the 12 Euro fee!
The closest we have come to the Aran Islands ... one day...
Note the stone platform before, I think pre-barrier days, people were able to go to the edge
These tourists have gone beyond the boundries
And some were too close for comfort
There's so much more to see and do in County Clare and unfortunately we were pressed for time so the Burren National Park is still unticked. I'm voting to come back to Clare again!
