Cliffs of Moher

The Cliffs of Moher are located on the Western coast of Ireland and is one of the most breathtaking coasts we have seen to date. They rise 390 feet above the Atlantic Ocean and reach over 700 feet just North of O'Briens Tower. O'Briens Tower is a round tower anound the midpoint of the cliffs built by Sir Cornelius O'Brien, a decendent of King Brian Boru, to impress the ladies. (hmmmm....Josh never built me a tower...)
It is a faboosh natural wonder to visit. It was made even cooler by Jaxon. He recognized the cave in the cliff wall as one that was used it the movie Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. Even the fairly steady rain didn't bother us. Enjoy the pictures!
