Aran islands show students the simple life
Cliffs of Moher
Oh … the Cliffs of Moher. That was the site that left students breathless. Again, the rain threatened to dampen our spirits but the views of the cliffs kept everyone on a high. One student summed it up best in her journal: although a sunny day is desirable when visiting such a place, the rain allows for beautiful pictures as well. Well said! It was phenomenal!
The Aran Islands provided a stark contrast to anything that the students had ever experienced. With its tiny roads and rocky landscape, students found it hard to imagine living in that environment. But we loved being there in the sunshine … and the ferry ride was not bad either.
