Sorry it's taken so long to write a decent post. Life's been a whirlwind for Sir Stan and I. The last three weeks have seen your dynamic duo "gorge walk" through the impressive hills of the Connemara in Western Ireland and visit the beautiful--yet still very divided--regions of Northern Ireland.
A Notre Dame trip took Flat and I to some of the most fantastic landscapes of Western Ireland. Highlights included a trip to the Burren, an ecological wonder in County Clare that is home to hundreds of ancient monuments and thousands
of plant species. We traveled to M
ámeán, an ancient church dedicated to St. Patrick that is wedged in between two mountains in Connemara. Your skinny protagonist (Stan that is) even teetered perilously on the edge of death at the Cliffs of Moher just for the photo opp. (Do you see the trouble he goes through for you? Yes, You!)The trip to Western Ireland was such a blast that I decided to head back the following weekend with a few friends. The Second Trip gave us the chance to explore Galway and go gorge walking--all thanks to the incredible hospitality of a very special relative (Thanks Linda!)
Well that's Western Ireland. Be sure to check the photos I've posted on Sutterfly. And, hey, do you like what I'm doing here? I hope you enjoy reading the posts as much as I enjoy writing them. Feel free to leave me some comments/suggestions about what you'd like to see Stan do with his time in Eire.
One Love,
Matt
Matt ~ TJ told me about your blog and I've been meaning to come check it out. I love it! It looks like you and Stanley have been having great adventures. I look forward to coming back to read on your future escapades. Thanks for sharing!
