To the Cliffs and beyond

Three days of touring Ireland has been fascinating.

Centenary alumni and friends at the Cliffs of Moher.
On Saturday morning, we departed Galway early to make our way across the beautiful countryside of Ireland to see the Cliffs of Moher. I have never seen so many cows and so much green - Ireland is so much more beautiful than I ever expected! Despite the rain and wind, the Cliffs of Moher were absolutely beautiful. Watching the waves hit the walls of the Cliffs was quite amazing.

After this sight, we crossed the River Shannon on a ferry - bus and all - to make our way across the countryside to Kerry. We then made our way to Killarney. We all arrived at the Killarney Plaza Hotel, had a wonderful dinner, then walked around this charming area.

The highlight was going to a piano bar to listen to music!


Our tour guide, Connor, was quite a hit. So was the piano bar in Killarney!
Besides all the wonderful sights, I have the pleasure of getting to know some wonderful Centenary College alumni and friends. In addition, our tour guide, Connor, has been a big hit - we are lucky to have him be a part of our trip.


Our next sights are the Ring of Kerry and the Skellig Experience. Stay tuned!
