Ireland

After a whirlwind of all-nighters and tons of work, I was sort-of glad to be spending a week in Ireland. It was nice though, and we got to see and do lots of cool things.  I went with part of the den crew from Goleta, including my older brother Daniel, cousin Aaron, Pat, Nels, and James.

Pat found some bread that he liked:
These are the Cliffs of Moher. They are HUGE! Unfortunately, they fenced off the edge so that tourists can't go out there anymore. They are still amazing, but I think you lose the impact of how high they are when you can't go to the edge. I had been there before, about 7 years ago, and I was able to stick my head over the edge then. The rush of wind coming up the cliff's face and being totally scared made this a cool site to see. 
We jumped over the fence to get this shot of out whole crew.


Most of the storefronts in Ireland have a really similar facade, but they all have a unique typeface, or color scheme to differentiate themselves from the stores. 
Haha, DK is picking his nose.
In the City Center at Galway.







There is snow on the mountain in the center of this shot. It was pretty cold the whole time we were there. 


Fungee the Dingle dolphin is a local legend there. This statue was made by the same artist that made the dolphin statue in Santa Barbara.












Frosty mornings.
