day 14

quote of the day: "happy bir-day" - Irishmen 

it's kristens birthday!! happy happy birthday to kristen in the Ireland! people here don't say there t's and it's hysterical, hence the quote. 
we headed to a town called kilkee, it is suppose to be as pretty as cliffs of moher. we headed down the coast just to get lost like always, there are always multiple pull offs and kristen or Kirt run to the window to discuss directions. 
after a few wrong turns we arrived in kilkee, here we stopped for lunch at hickies. kristen thought it was dickies, after an hour of eating at dickies we realized it was really hickies. after lunch Kirt stood up and said "I lost my coin purse." he frantically looked everywhere for it. he bought this coin purse in Scotland to carry all his change and suddenly he's a coin guy, can't go anywhere without it. we are all laughing at his worried look but luckily he found it when we got back to the car.
we headed to the cliff walk. it was beautiful, it was better than the cliffs of moher probably just because it wasn't as crowded and it was a sunny day. the waters were so blue and the waves came crashing in! 
afterwards we headed to get ice cream for kristens birthday at the dairy. the ice cream here is delicious so much better than the ice cream at home I don't know why. 
next stop was trump international golf course. we thought we'd check it out, buy a few things in the gift shop and look around. it was really nice, kristen and I are thinking trump international might be out next vacation spot.
tonight we had reservations at the local pub for lobster. when we arrived there the owner informed us that there is no fresh lobster. sorry kristen no lobster for your birthday, but she was happy about it! we had steak while the boys had seafood. it was a good way to spend our last night with the tollers. they are headed to Dublin tomorrow since they fly out early Saturday morning. 
the pub gave kristen apple crumble for her bir-day to celebrate. we are sad to see virg and kristen leave cause it won't be nearly as entertaining without them. 
tomorrow we will go to a nearby town to shop and watch the surfers.
