Day 3 led us up north a bit along the Atlantic Ocean to the Cliffs of Moher and Galway. <br><br>If you haven't heard anything about the Cliffs, I would highly recommend researching and visiting as soon as possible. The weather is a bit temperamental but it is honestly one of the world's most beautiful places. The cliffs are 100s of feet above sea level. They overlook the Atlantic and the water can be seen splashing up against the ...

... didnt want to board with 6 other people tonight, and that we just wanted to relax and be by ourselves haha surprising? no. We wanted to do nothing altogether by ourselves!!!! Sooooo we decided to check out a bed and breakfast. What a great thought. we are going to be bed and breakfast coniseurs once this is all said and done...haha who ever thought of B and B's is a smash hit because we are staying in places for 20 euros, with ...

... the national history museum in the morning and the Guinness museum in the evening was a very interesting contrast. I think I'm getting old...I almost enjoyed the former more. Maybe that's just because it was free :)<br><br>After the Guinness tour, it was about 7pm so we decided to try to find dinner. I've never really realized that I've adapted to Spanish culture until that point. We were out, wandering around trying to find ...

... you could really experience the cliffs. There were cattle and sheep on one side and the sheer cliffs on the other... it really made me feel like I was a part of nature and Ireland as a whole. Look through some of the pictures to see what Im talking about. Overall it was a fantastic trip and with the group rate we got for bringing like 12 kids it only ended up costing like 20 euro the entire day and I need all the budget saving trips that I can get!<br>

We got to sleep in for the first time!!! We didn't have to be in class until 11:15. I used some of this extra time to do my laundry. Wouldn&#8217;t you know I screwed something up and the machine stopped working. The man in the office helped me and I had to transfer my wet clothes into a new machine. Of course, water dripped everywhere. I was so embarrassed. But, I now have clean jeans to ...

... with thatched-roof homes and lovely atmosphere. Our home for the next two nights would be the Adare Village Inn, which was really just a few comfortable and spotless rooms above some of the local shops. The proprietors, Bridie and Sean, welcomed us like old friends and checked in on us a few times to see if we needed anything - a wonderful touch for a zero-service "hotel ...

Armed with her new job at La Salsa, Katherine set out to go flat-hunting and enlisted me for support. The first place she visited was a house in a suburb (Lower Salthill) just across the River Corrib from central Galway. It had hardwood floors in the living room and bedrooms, a washer but no dryer, a backyard, three girls already living there (the one who showed us around was a Californian), a grocery store nearby that ...
