You might have not been to Ireland (yet!) but I guess some of you have been in an Irish pub in their hometown or elsewhere. Anyway, let's go on a coastal adventure together and we will end up walking along cliffs edge. Not any cliffs but the popular Cliffs of Moher.

Upon touching down, ideally at Shannon airport, hire a car and head out of town for a scenic road trip on the Wild Atlantic Way. Self driving is the best way to explore this part of the country as public transport is limited and if you have at least one more person traveling with you, you will actually end up saving money by getting your own car and making the most of your trip.

The Cliffs of Moher are sea cliffs at the southwestern edge of Burren region in County Clare. Rising from Doolin, they ascend to 213 meters stretching south for nearly 8 kilometres to Hags head.

There is no accommodation available at this UNESCO geopark. However the closest village of Doolin is a fantastic base from which to explore the trails along the cliffs where there are several hotels, guest houses, pubs and a restaurant.
Don't forget to make friends on the way! Donkeys are a traditional part of Irish rural life, especially in the west part of the country. They have long ears, dark rings around their eyes and shaggy coats. Hundreds of donkeys are privately owned in Ireland. Remember: donkeys don't like tomatoes! They will have a one but then they will realise it's actually not their cup of tea.

Raising sheep in Ireland is popular as the country provides plenty of space for them to graze. Therefore local farmers keep surprisingly large numbers of animals. Irish sheep are more commonly used for meat than for wool.

This has been posted as a "50/50" but I commit myself to transfer SBD to SP to Power Up 100% based on the program's rules.
A can of colored aerosol instead of scissors ... what farmers think about, it seems that only about meat. In vain :)

I totally agree @bambuka. The extremely hairy sheep do state the farmers' priorities. They were very playful and seemed to enjoy my company I reckon as they ran around like excited puppies when they saw me and then stopped, posing for their photo taken.
