Today was a good day. Following a wonderful breakfast we headed out to the car rental (car hire) place. Since there were no cars available for us to exchange, they patched our bumper back on and we were good to go. Next stop was a1 km walk to the phone store. Success! We have phone service (for each of us) for all of the British Isles (Ireland, Northern Ireland, Scotland, England and Wales) and even all of Europe (although we don’t anticipate making calls to Europe. The main reason for wanting these phones is to be able to contact each other whenever we are apart for whatever reason. The are also useful for making and confirming reservations and making local calls without having to worry about time limits or roaming charges. They have come in handy in our previous travels and are truly worth the cost.
Following these chores, we drove southwest to the Cliffs of Moher. Some of the scenery along the way was spectacular, but alas the only available photo op pull off was overflowing.
We did have an opportunity to get a photo of an old Catholic church, but wasn’t able to get any information about it. (We’ll try to look it up later.) The landscape was a patchwork of shades of green with 4 legged lawnmowers (sheep and cows). Although the distance was only about 75 km, it took about 1 3/4 hours each way. The roads were narrow with a fair number of roundabouts. In most places, the stone walls and shrubbery came right up to the edge of the road. There was a section of the road for about 2-3 km called Corkscrew Hill with a 12% grade. Yes, you get the picture: I was wishing that I was driving his Miata and Peggy was wishing (praying) for a wider road. A little further down that narrow road with no shoulders, we came upon 5 pedestrians walking toward us. Happily for all of us, there was no car on the other side of the road, and we easily went around them. They smiled and waved as we drove off. Ahh to be young and fearless (or stupid) again!
The Cliffs of Moher lived up to their reputation. They comprise a limestone plateau that drops 1000 feet into the South Sound/Atlantic Ocean.

The views of the cliffs themselves and the surrounding countryside were amazing. The whole area truly deserves its UNESCO Global status designation. The wind was so strong at times, that the mist from the crashing waves below reached us up on the plateau. Peggy was very glad she dressed in layers as it was chilly when the wind was blowing! We would hate to be up there in a gale!
We topped off the day with another wonderful dinner at Tom Sheridan’s Pub. I think I mentioned they make their own IPA (Galway Golden IPA) which made a delightful nightcap.
Unfortunately, at the end of the day, I had problems with the blog and wasn’t able to load photos. After 3 hours wrestling with it and calling for help from our web host, I was finally able to convince them that everything was NOT working right and they said they would put a specialist to work on it right away. By that time, it was about 2 AM and I was done for the night. So, we’ll see what happens later.
