Just a quick one

This is just a quick post since I just finished a nice ride in Connemara and since I'm needing to go downstairs for a vodka tonic on the patio to check out the astonishing view. I had a bit more sleep last night- probably 7 hours. I've been going on about 5 a night so I'm feeling pretty fresh right now. Just to cap things- didnt ride the first two days, took a tour of a cave and saw a pretty rad 7 meter stalagtyte, took a tour of the Burren on foot with a wonderful guide who new everything (!), rode on Tuesday, some rain, got to Galway- my old stomping grounds- played around, saw "Long Days Journey into Night" and it was beyond wonderful in every way, took ferry to the islands, rode, saw parents, rode, saw great music that night, woke up, rode, rode, took ferry back, rode some more, got lost once, and now that brings we to Zeetland House where I'm typing this note to you all. I've meet so many dogs and get so excited with each one, its become a running joke with my group as to what "Colleen's animal count" is for the day. I've taken pictures of them all!

Tomorrow we ride again and then satuday i'll make my way to cork. I'm sure i'll be able to post some more soon. Love to you all!
