 Ella waving at the cows outside our hotel window.

 We got to see the Cliffs of Moher.

On our way down the path to the Blarney Castle.
Ella wanted to eat the "popcorn" off the tree!
Jake barely squeezed his way through to the top of the castle with Ella on his back.
I kissed the Blarney stone...
 ...& so did Jake.
Can you spot the witch?! Apparently a witch lived outside the Blarney Caslte & you had to make a offering so she wouldn't cast a spell on you. 
This is all I had to give...{I took it back after the picture!}
I don't know how Jake carries this 50lb pack!...I was DYING after 5 minutes!
We had a good time at a medieval banquet in the Bunratty Castle.
We had to eat our dinner like this...seriously! The whole experience was to eat like the people did in midieval times...with your fingers!
Ella was crowned Queen for the night.

Jake was asked to be part of the entertainment! He was sent to the dungeon for being naughty...
...when they let him out, he had to dance & sing for the crowd!

We made it to Ireland!
We hung out in the hotel Pub listening to the locals get their Irish jig on!

Our friends came to visit & start our BIG Europe Adventure!
 We started off seeing Stone Henge.
We toured Bath & learned a lot about the Romans.

Ella & I were munchkins in the Stake Roadshow...
 ...but what she really wanted to do was play the piano!
