Day 1 in Ireland

Landed at Shannon Airport at 6am Ireland time!! We were all rearing to go!!

Meet our bus driver, Kevin.
We headed to Dingle with a few stops along the way. We stopped at Leamahen Castle to take pictures.
We stopped next at Poulabrone Megalithis Tomb to look around and take pictures.

Headed to The Cliffs of Moher next. They were indescribable! There was a harpist playing on the stairs named Tina. She was absolutely beautiful! So much so that I was crying and Venita was as well.

Stopped at Ballyhaighy Beach for a bit.

We took a ferry over to Dingle where we were going to be staying for two nights. Cute town with a harbor.
Went to dinner and visited a pub to listen to traditional music.

Will continue later this evening.
