Day 7 - Slieve League

Allegedly the highest cliffs in Europe. They did seem high. On and off rain all day, but, miraculously, the rain stopped about 30 seconds after I got to the car park, the sun came out as I reached the top, and it started to rain again as soon as I got back to the car. According to a sampling of reviews on the interwebs, the beautiful weather I had for the climb is exceedingly rare. Mom would say it was the Holy Spirit. :) Whatever it was, I'm very grateful!  It was crazy windy and very steep, but well worth the effort. I really have no business getting up all these hills, mountains, and hotel stairs as well as I have given the amount of excercise I normally get (walk to car/bus, sit all day, walk back to car/bus, sit on couch, sleep). I need breaks, but I'm doing a lot better than some folks. Worse than others, of course. Those Germans are climbers!  I passed (going the other way - duh) one guy running up the mountain. Sheesh!  I also wandered about Donegal again and walked a few scenic beaches. Whenever the wind gets to be a bit much - like when I almost lost my iPhone over the cliff or when my ears start to hurt - I think abou the hot weather back home and smile. This is much more my style!

Spotted this little guy on the way back from Slieve League. Can I keep him??
