The Aran Islands

We got up early in the morning and walked for a half an hour to the Busarus. We got our tickets, bought our breakfast and then got on the bus to Galway.

We got to Galway at 10:30 in the morning and were very lucky to get tickets for the bus to Rosseveal. Rosseveal is the place from where the ferries for the Aran Islands leave.

Here is me on the ferry, almost reaching the Inishmore island of the Aran Islands.

The cliffs, as viewed from the fortress of Dun Aonghasa


View from the Fortress: This is the Atlantic Ocean. There is nothing between here and the United States of America, which explains why it was so windy!
