Extraordinary View at Armada Hotel


This is the line that separates North Atlantic Sea and West side of Ireland. The view there is captivating and breath-taking. On the right side of this line is the beautiful Armada Hotel. We stayed there for 3 days and 2 nights with my in-laws during their vacation here. We got a pretty good offer through DealRush for €119 for 1 Ocean View Suites (max two persons), 2 nights including breakfast, dinner (3-course meal) for one night and tickets to Cliffs of Moher. The original price is €70 per person sharing with breakfast for 1 night only while a 3-course meal per person will cost about €40- €50. If you'll do the math you will agree with me that we got a great deal.

The Ocean View Suite was so lovely and spacious. A wide double-glazed window will direct you to the awesome view outside where you can see the wild splashing of water of Atlantic Sea. 

Our view from our room
Although it's chilling outside, me and my hubby decided to walk for few minutes. The ocean was roaring loud.  We were stunned by the layers of rock at the seaside. 

Rock formation at the sea side
In Ireland, the seas are labelled blue flag beach if it's clean and fit for human activities like swimming and surfing. This one is a blue flag beach. Even so, I wouldn't dare dipping my feet in the water. Why? It's freezing cold out there even on summer days.

Houses along the coastline
I was looking for the story of this cove but I found nothing. Safe to say that during the Spanish era, it was used as shelter by native people. Otherwise, I stand corrected.

Cove
Armada Hotel is located at Spanish Point Rd, Miltown Malbay, Co. Clare. It is near the most visited sites in Ireland namely  the Cliffs of Moher, the Burren and the Ailwee Caves.

    I love all the views, and the beach is so stunning but as you said it so cold out there, so I will not dare myself as well to have a plunge. I don't like cold.

House as Clean as a Hound's Tooth

Love and Marriage

Being married for more than thirteen years does not make me an expert to relationship and family. But it is certain that those years made me the better person I am now and I hope that it is the same with my husband. I personally believe that keeping your marriage healthy, sparkling and smooth boils down to open communication and plain understanding. Aside from these two factors, there are other ways to keep you tied up to the man or woman you say "I Do". According to  Merriam- Webster  Dictionary, "Marriage is  the state of being united to a person of the opposite sex as husband or wife in a consensual and contractual relationship recognized by law". But it is actually more than that. Time, effort, love, affection, acceptance, faithfulness and sincerity goes with marriage. If you are just starting a wonderful married life and you want to keep it till you are both old, you may want to consider the following ways to keep your happy lives together. Put Jesus Christ in
