June 18: Sunset on Sky Road

On Wednesday Alita took us to Avis car rental before she left for work and Jason and I took off on our own for the west. Although the trip began in heavy rain and thick clouds, as the day continued, the rain stopped and the sun began to peek through. When we arrived in Galway it was starting to be a great day. We walked through the streets of Galway for a bit and stopped in a cafe for tea and scones. Then we continued driving west to Clifden where we found our lovely bed and breakfast called Mallmore House.

After our arrival in Clifden on Wednesday night and a delicious Thai supper in a local restaurant, we took the advice of our kind hostess and drove up the Sky Road to see the sunset. It was amazing!
