Oh, Dublin.
Saturday was the craziest Irish day of my life. We got up in the morning and headed to Bewley's, a famous coffee house on Grafton Street (the shopping district). I had the very best coffee EVER and a delicious bagel sandwich, Irish style (I've really missed bagels!).
We headed to St. Patrick's Cathedral next and took plenty of pictures inside. I lit a candle there to send some Irish blessings back home, too. :) The Guinness Storehouse tour came next, where I learned that I LOVE GUINNESS--which is going to be a big problem lol--and that MSU students really do have an amazing drink IQ (dear Lord). We learned the bus system today too, after our little mishap on Friday with taking taking the 128 until it...ended in the suburbs. Hooray for directions from the locals!
We took a small siesta in the hotel after the tour, sipped on some Bailey's in drinking chocolate (again) and munched on a Cadbury mixed pack. I'm telling you, this is the life I was meant to live!
And Saturday night...is a story I don't think I should post on a public blog, lol. In short, we went out to explore the nightlife and had some drinks bought for us by some VERY cute Scottish boys (Scottish boys in Ireland, who would've thought). We danced and sang and had tons of fun. It was a great night! :)
Sunday was a much slower day for us. We strolled through St. Stephen's Green and then down Grafton Street again, popping in and out of stores and trying not to spend too much money. Dublin is such a fun place. I love it just as much as I love Edinburgh, but for very different reasons.
And today, we are resting just before heading back to London. I go home in 3 days...Wow. I don't understand what happened to my life. Where did July go?
