Achill Island

I spent today somewhere new again. This time it was Achill Island on the west coast of Ireland, near Westport in Co Mayo whwere I'm staying a couple of days. Being Ireland, it poured with rain! But being Ireland, the coastal scenery along the edge of the Atlantic was absolutely magnificent ... in fact overwhelming. Mountains like Slieve Mor (672m) plunge straight into the ocean and have massive sea cliffs. I can recommend this destination to all!

It sounds like a great tour. I wish that I had your stamina!

What's wrong with your stamina!? You should try to join me on some of these excursions and you'll see that it's not really that hard.
