Day 7 - Ardmore

The group with Mr. Mooney



This morning we got an early start and drove to meet the Mooney brothers. They explained to us a lot of the history of the area and took us on a tour of the area. There were many beautiful sites full of grass, water, and cows. The view that the town had to offer took our breath away. We saw sites of sacred graves, and took a drink out of a well which is thought of as the purest water Ireland has to offer.  

The rest of the day we were able to enjoy the bed and breakfast. After traveling for a week we are all exhausted. I took this time to take a nap, to re-pack my suitcase, and to sit outside to journal. The family who was hosting us had a couple horses, so I pet a horse for the first time – ever! There were some hurling sticks around the house we played with and a swing we used to relax!

It was a great day today in Ireland. Sometimes less is more (oh wait, is that another lesson I learned?)

Sláinte!
