Bright and early we boarded a bus bound for The Cliffs of Moher. Our guide was so cute and even sang for us as we bounced along the roadways in the rain. We visited a wishing well, some beautiful castles, bluffs along the sea (affectionately called The Burren) and finally The Cliffs. The entire day was spectacular, down to the stop for lunch in Doolin. If we had more time I would have loved to have spent a night in Doolin. (All the downtown pubs play traditional Irish music every night of the week.) Although it rained, it was still a really lovely day spent in Ireland.
That evening we went to a famous fish and chips spot (my hot take is that it was just OK) Then we went out with girls we had met on our tour. We started at a place with live music- Galway Girl (the Irish version) is always a hit- then we went to a place with traditional Irish music (think 3 man band with accordion) and then we found ourselves at a club (WHAT?! 😀) I know what you're thinking however it worked out SO WELL for Elizabeth and I because it was right underneath our hotel. There were 2 downsides though: 1) I had kept my leggings on underneath my jeans from the day and OH MY GOSH was I hot. 2) We played this coaster flipping game that I could not get the hang of. (I've since brought it to the US and while people are usually like wtf is the point, they get addicted pretty quickly)
No club night is complete without staying til bar close and being encouraged to transfer your drink to a plastic cup for consumption on the street. This explains the earplugs on our bedside tables when we checked into our accommodation. 😂
