cliffs of moher

Gorgeous.
How scary are those drops? They try to keep you away from the edge, but people go anyway. It's insane!



The obligatory picture of me looking pensive and staring out into the Atlantic.

Pretty sure you're not allowed to to this. Random Dude did not care.



Most of the group from Duquesne. We were missing a few people. But the bottom row L to R is Sarah L., Lisa, me, Kelly. Top row L to R is Caitlin, Sarah S., Rebekah, Doug, Meg.

Got up early and we took a tour bus with two other student groups to to the Cliffs of Moher. Along the way, we stopped at Aillwee Cave. The cave wasn't anything incredibly spectacular, but it was nice and I feel like caves of any sort are pretty cool. It's REALLY old and it was discovered in the 20th century by some guy who followed his dog who was chasing a rabbit. And he kept the cave to himself for 40 years until he decided it could be a tourist spot.

I have some nice pictures from there. I didn't feel like doing the whole upload thing with them. So check out my Facebook if you want to see those. http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/album.php?aid=2014988&id=1476120019 (You should be able to see the album even if you don't have a Facebook).

In other news, tomorrow night is the Superbowl! The Superbowl that the Steelers are in! They're actually airing it here. Apparently there are some Steelers bars in Dublin, but that's a bit far. They show American football in a couple pubs. It'll start airing at 10 PM, but the game won't actually start until 11. We're going to get there around 8 and try to claim a table or at least a section of the pub close to the TV. Its gonna be a long night.
