The Parentals Visit

I just sent my parents on the bus to Dublin airport after their 6 day visit. It was so wonderful to be able to share my Galway life with them. We went out to great restaurants that I've been waiting to try. We did the ultimate tourist things in the west of Ireland - Aran Islands, Cliffs of Moher. And Dad and I made the pilgrimage all the way up Croagh Patrick a mountain in County Mayo where St. Patrick is believed to have banished all the snakes from Ireland. It was an incredible trip that will go down in family history.

Mom took a lot of the photos with her camera but here are some from our climb of Croagh Patrick.
