DUBLIN

This is my last Spring Break post - promise.

Dublin had undoubtably the nicest atmosphere and people of the 3 countries we explored. AND they spoke English - but it had to have been the hardest of the 3 accents to understand.

Friday morning Mike and I arrived in Dublin - as RyanAir is based in Dublin we did not have a 2 hour shuttle into the city like we did in Barcelona and Paris. The weather was gorgeous and we were given towels at our hostel - bonus. Took much needed showers and headed to the Guinness Storehouse. Dublin is home to both the Guinness Storehouse and Jameson Distillery.

The Guinness Storehouse is the tallest building in Dublin, and after finding out all about the founding of the Guinness Factory, Arthur Guinness, and how it is made/brewed, we were given a free Guinness on the top floor overlooking the city. Undoubtably the freshest Guinness I'll ever have.

Dublin was in no way the 'prettiest' city that we saw, but I loved it.

Saturday was a Rugby day-

Wales vs. Ireland

Six Nations

The game was awesome. Our seats were incredible.

Both of our first experiences of professional rugby.

And... Ireland won!

Sunday we wandered around before our flight,

bought our souvenirs, and saw Trinity College.

All in all, best. spring break. ever.

This weekend seems to be the J-Force weekend for Dublin.

At least 20+ people headed to Ireland including my room mate and the rugby boys.

I am headed to London, and thanks to the British Airways strike, will not be back until Monday! I watched Harry Potter 1 in preparation as King's Cross will be on my agenda. (embarrassing)
