I think I may have almost recovered from my trip. It was an insane journey and I enjoyed every second of it. I had really missed traveling AND speaking English. It was very shocking to get off the plane in Ireland and be surrounded by English again.
The first day I was in Ireland I did the most typical touristy thing imaginable and went to the Guinness museum with my friends. We were able to tap our own pint and which was awesome because it was my first Guinness ever, I tapped it, and it was is IRELAND!
Later that night I met up with a group of my friends that are in the Spain program with me and we went on a pub crawl. It was so much fun and even though it was a Wednesday night almost every pub had awesome live music.
The next day I went on a free tour of Dublin! The doors on the left are all different colors because they didn't used to have house numbers in Dublin so everyone was required to have a different colored door then their two neighbors so no one would wander into the wrong house.
The picture of the right is of the palace in Dublin. This is as close as I could get because the building was closed due to the meetings of the European Union being held there.
The next day my friends and I visited a place called Howth, a small fishing town on the coast. It was a completely gorgeous town and we were able to climb around in the hills on the coast.
Ireland was awesome.
My favorite place I have every visited, I wish I could have stayed forever. I felt like the luckiest girl on earth the whole time I was there. I can not thank my family enough for this amazing opportunity. I have the best parents ever and I owe every bit of my awesomeness to them.
-Thank you Mom and Dad-
-I miss and love you-
