Cliffs of Moher

yep

I left Limerick on Monday and went to Doolin in Co. Clare. I saw the Cliffs of Moher. They were impressive but there were too many tourists. They really kind of ruined it for me. I stayed in a nice hostel in Doolin and went out and saw some really good traditional Irish music. I like the pubs in Doolin because its such a small town and young and old people all hang out together. And old Irish dude was singing after the music ended til the place closed. I was a little disappointed that I didn't get to cycle around the Burren due to fouuuul weather.

Before I left Doolin yesterday, some girls from the hostel took me out for bloody marys. What a great thing to wake up to on your birthday. I took the bus to Galway and ended up meeting some random people at the Spanish Arch and hanging out all night. I had a good birthday here in Galway. Galway is pretty cool. It's pretty full of tourists, but besides that it's got a pretty cool boho vibe (the streets are full of buskers) and from what I saw yesterday a very nice night life.
