TO BE SURE, TO BE SURE!

Hellooooo

Well, from Edinburgh we we're off to Dublin.
The original plan for getting there was to catch a train from Edinburgh at around 6am to Glasgow, have a lunch break there and see a bit of the town before catching another train at around 11.42am to Stranraer on the coast of Scotland. Jump on a ferry at 2.30pm getting to Belfast at 5.30pm and then catching another train from there to Dublin, arriving at 8pm.
But we thought, stuff that! So we bought a plane ticket the day before.
We flew into Belfast at around 9am, then got a on a 2hour bus ride to Dublin.
We got to our Dublin hostel at around 1pm.
Much better!

The first thing we get asked when we arrived at our hostel was if we wanted to go on the weekly hostel pub crawl that night? Of course we do!
And with that, my first night in Dublin turned out to be one I barely remember. 
Although Ashlinne does... she had to get me home... <3
It was a great night though, made a couple of friends from Canada, Paul and Katie, saw a bunch of great Irish pubs, and I somehow talked a street busker into giving me a go at their guitar!

The next day we didn't do much...

But the following two days were packed! St Patrick's Cathedral, Guinness Brewery, The old jail, Trinity College, Dublin Castle, Christ Church, The viking museum, City Hall, Oscar Wilde memorial, Natural History Museum, Custom Buildings, City Wall and Gate, some shopping and just walking around Dublin.

Guinness is the best. Hands down!

























GUINNESS!!!!!
