july 1











today i woke up early and went running and it was so beautiful. we ran up through this quaint little town and then ran down to the ocean. it was awesome. then we packed up and left the hostel and drove to this ancient celtic ruin cite. it was very interesting. they ruins were said to be about 1200 years old and experts and not sure what they were used for but are guessing a church. the stone work was really amazing for how old it was. the door faced exactly west and the window faced exactly east so the sun would come up and shine in it. after we left that we traveled to a beach and had lunch and after we went to kilarny where we are now. we found free internet so we are all excited. as of right now we have been traveling on dingle peninsula which is the most western point of all of europe which is cool. i am having a hard time adjusting to the time switch. my body is very confused with my sleeping schedule but im sure i will get used to it.

the pictures that i have included in this post are pictures of the ancient ruin, the window and the door. also i included a picture of an ancient stone that they found next to the ruin. it has markings on it and they are not sure what they mean. they guess that it might be a burial site but cannot know for sure until excavation. Also i posted a picture of our hostel that we are staying at tonight in Killarny.
