How was the weather this week?:

The weather this week was much sunnier than usual. It felt like all of Dublin was out and about. The parks in the city were filled with people. It was a nice break from the preceding cold, rainy months. It finally feels like we are leaving winter behind. Daffodils and other little flowers are cropping up throughout the city as well!

What animals did I see this week? :

I saw swans, seabirds, cows, sheep, and dogs. I saw lambs and calves as well - a true sign of spring! Living in Dublin, I often see swans, pigeons, seagulls, and various dogs. Swans are my favorite by far. Seeing them gives me motivation on my runs around the city. On the train out to Galway, I saw so many sheep. My friends, who were visiting from Rhode Island, were very pleased. We saw a few horses as well. 

What was the coolest thing I saw in nature this week?:

I hiked from the town of Doolin to the Cliffs of Moher. The landscape was so majestic. It has rugged windblown cliffs, vivid green grass, and foaming waves crashing against the cliffs.
