Ireland

I haven't updated for a while but a few weekends ago three friends and I went to Dublin. We had to wake up at 4:45am to go to the airport so we could get there by 6:25. The flight was only an hour so it wasn't that bad. We arrived in Dublin and took the bus to our hostel. We couldn't check in until after 2 so we left our bags at the hostel and decided to go to the Guinness factory. It was really cool, it was 7 stories and each floor had different information on Guinness. The top floor was called the Gravity Bar where you could redeem your free pint of Guinness. From the top there was an awesome view of Dublin. After we settled into our hostel we went out and got some food. We then went to the temple bar area. There was a rugby game between Ireland and France the weekend we were there so all the bars were packed. We went around to a few bars and got some drinks. We then went to a pub by our hostel to watch some live Irish music. The next day we took a train to a little city called Malahide. We went and saw the Malahide castle then went down to the oceanfront and walked along the beach. Malahide was a cute little town and reminded me of home but a lot colder. When we got back to Dublin we went to the Dublin castle and wandered around. That night we hung out in our hostel for a little bit then met up with my friends friend and his girlfriend who go to school in Ireland. We went across the street to a bar and got a drink. Overall I really like Dublin. The people were really friendly and the city itself isn't that big so you can walk everywhere.
