May 1st, 2015:
The second half of our trip in Ireland (check out Part one here), was through the south of Ireland – hitting up Connemara, the Cliffs of Moher, and Cork before heading back to the airport trying to visit every castle we passed (of which there are quite a few). Our niece Madalyn kept me on my toes the entire time and brought an energy to Felicia and I that we may have forgot about. My only regret was that it was only a 10 day trip….
Although, to be fair we did end up with a bonus night in London because Madalyn and I (despite running like mad bastards through the airport), missed our connecting flight back to L.A. – No harm done though, this kid just agreed that we should spend the night exploring the city and seeing what there is to see.
Cliffs of Moher
Madalyn even took a chocolate making class with our AirBnB host, David – if you are in Cork I highly encourage you to stay with David and Angie, who are easily some of the best AirBnB hosts we’ve ever come across.
Madalyn and I kissed the Blarney stone on the high walls of the Blarney castle.
These ruins are officially called “Hore Abbey”, to which Madalyn began innocently screaming “It’s an abbey full of hores!” (Honestly not knowing what a ‘hore’ would refer to.) This topic quickly devolveded into a nice conversation about the worlds oldest profession from her aunt and uncle…
Thank you Madalyn for this amazing experience and I can’t wait until we get to go on another adventure!
