Today we are heading from Tralee through Listowell and crossing with the ferry at Tarbert, over the river Shannon, to finally reach Cliffs of Moher.
On the way to the Cliffs, we made a short stop in Listowell, a charming little town, with very colored buildings. Took a few photographs of the cathedral and decided to see what was for sale in the local open market in downtown. We left from there with strawberries, which did not last that long.
Not after long we reached the big river Shannon at Tarbert where we crossed with the ferry.
The Cliffs looked just as I remembered, with the only difference that this time I could see the birds nesting. Thousands and thousands of birds, making a loud noise…it was an amazing view.
After walking for a few hours on the edge of the cliffs, we went to Doolin peer to see if our ferry booking for next day has been processed, and since it was too early for dinner, we drove to Lisdoonvarna in the search of an open restaurant.
We had a quite meal, while watching the Romania-Italy soccer game on TV. It was a tie, but Romania won more point to get to the semi final…not that I know anything about soccer.
Our accommodation was at the Bay View Farmhouse, and indeed as the name said it, the room had a view over the bay and Aran Islands.
The host was very helpful and as my friend Gerry said, the most charming we met the entire trip.
