Cliffs of Moher Kept Us Wanting More

Post by Liz Frick and Alecia Nippert

This morning, we packed up after our last night at the Heights Hotel. We took a drive to Lehinch beach and spent an hour there for lunch--some of us even got our feet a little wet and went in the water. We took another drive to the Cliffs of Moher and spent a couple hours trekking the rocks and hiking the trails next to the steep cliffs (don't worry--no one got hurt!). The view was gorgeous, and a lot of us felt relaxed looking at the view, even though some of us were scared at the height. After we were done at the cliffs, we took another drive (this day involved a lot of driving), and we made a few stops...the Poulnabrone Tomb, an area by the ocean with nothing full of limestone slabs in Blackhead, and a clean water well next to a deserted famine town. Then we checked into our beautiful hotel, Old Ground Hotel in Ennis, where we all got dressed up to eat a delicious fancy dinner. For the rest of the night, we're going to listen to some Irish music!
