This is the REAL The Auld Dubliner =) But don't worry, the inside looks pretty much the same...lots of wood with a very cozy feeling! We met these Northern Irish guys from Belfast and they speak an entirely different language. I have a video of them talking but it'll take me forever to upload so maybe another time =)
This the old city wall that used to surround Dublin in 1240 AD. Ridiculously old. I love ruins and old buildings so out of my gazillion pictures of cathedrals and ancient ruins, I thought this was the best =)
These are my two little Irish Sisters (Bernice is in the middle and Ellie is on the other end)! They are the best travel buddies you will ever find and we had a blast touring through Ireland together. They were the reason why I changed my plans =) Anyway, this is a pic of us in a cutesy little Irish town called Kilkenny.
This is Kilkenny Castle! The tourguide there was a riot =) He just loved to keep talking and talking and talking and he would make these jokes that nobody else would get but he would just crack himself up. I was wondering when he'd breathe. But the guy knows his stuff...random wealth of information about anything and everything that has to do with the castle, the families, etc.
This is me and Bernice messing around in Kilkenny before we had to hit the open roads and head over to Galway (through the cathedral no less) I wish I had a picture of that.
Here we've arrived in Galway. It's our second day in the city and of course its of pic of us at our Local =) We partied at the Skeff the night before and here we're having breakfast on a bright sunny day =)
Cliffs of Moher =) Its relaxing just to look at the pictures of it =)
We just drove around the Burren area (which is this rocky area around the Cliffs of Moher) and played at the rocks by the seaside =) Thats Ellie hopping rocks!
This is the last day we had together as a threesome =) We drove over to Connemara and checked out all the mirror lakes and prettyshrubbery. People drove ridiculously fast around that area though (partly cuz there's nothing there) except the gorgeous view. I wanted to get a good pic of the lakes so I made the girls walk along the side of the "expressway" to get to this point. I think a car just sped by and almost hit us at when we took that pic...
It just so happened that the girls and I rented the exact same car so here they are posing with the Twins =) They even have the same birthmark...they're both missing the front left hubcap =) I think when we were driving, we both hug left (especially on all those narrow roads through the Burren and Connemara). I told you guys about the bus incident right when my heart almost popped out of my eyes? Anyway, we said our goodbyes and caravaned back to Dublin after this =(
This is me at the Guiness Brewery =) They give you a free pint and the glass is sitting in front of me now =) I think that's the earliest I've ever had a Guiness. This retired couple that I was hanging out with kept telling me that it's a great breakfast food with hearty grains. I think they were serious.Alright! That pretty much concludes Ireland! I'll post the rest of the pics up on Picassa or something =) My internet kinda sucks so its hard to do this for too long =) Talk to you soon!
