Before coming to Ireland I was looking around on Google Maps of the area that I was living in. I saw that there was a huge park about a mile south of my apartment. Today when I woke up I went to go look for it! It was pretty hard to miss. While I was walking down the hill to the park I got my first glimpse of the Irish countryside! It was so beautiful! Here's a picture:
At the bottom of this hill is the park. It's called The Lough (the Irish pronounce this like "lock") It is a huge man made lake with two walking paths, benches, a park, and restaurants around it. I decided it would be a great place to go running!
There were a ton of birds sitting in the lake and flying around. There were swans, ducks, pigeons, seagulls, and a few birds that I've never seen before.
I'll add some more pictures to the top of my blog of my adventure today!
