Well it was the longest trip ever. Pretty view of Mount Rainier on my way out though. It was so long because I had a big lay-over in NYC, and an even bigger one in London. Haven't slept in about two days so I should go to sleep really easily tonight. Met a really great guy on the way from NYC to London. Then met an awesome girl from Dublin, with tons of advice about touring Dublin. She used to live in Dublin for the longest time so she had lots of insight. She even told me about other places in Ireland that she recommends. Once I finally arrived in Dublin though I had no trouble getting from the Dublin airport to the city center, but did have some trouble finding the hostel. Wasn't too bad though, just took a few minutes.
I met someone on the bus who didn't know where to go for his hostel, so I helped him, once I found mine (barnacles temple bar house). He sure seems nice. He is from Turkey and will be doing research here at Trinity college. I have also had some issues with the broken down locker, but I think I got it all worked out. Got kind of settled in pretty quick, but wasn't sure what to do after that. I am going to Cork and Blarney in the morning, so wasn't out too late, especially since I am so tired.
Just had a couple pints of Guiness with my new friend from the bus and his friend. He met someone else from Turkey that he was going to rent a house from, while he lives here in Dublin. Then after we hung out a bit, I grabbed a bite to eat and now I am off to bed early.

Ooo!!! Sooo jealousss. So, is it true? Is Guinness better over there?
ReplyDeleteI think it really is, but I also hear it is ever better the closer you are to the brewery, even within Dublin. I will continue to test these theories, with much more experimentation and then I will get back to you with the results!
