Welcome to the Cliffs of Moher

We spent an afternoon visiting the Cliffs of  Moher.  They were truly impressive.  There is a lot of ground to cover if you want to take the time to see the cliffs from different angles, which we did.   Also the visitors center was one of the most impressive layouts we’ve ever been to.  Well worth the time to go there and see the cliffs.
