Day 126 - 127
Dublin, Ireland
We're in Dublin after surviving our tour and it's raining!! What a change! Apparently it rains all year here...and i believe it. It's like a mystic sort of rain, where the sun is shining, yet it's raining as well....i like it.
What do you see in Dublin?
The Guinness factory of course!!!
And we did.
It has seven floors and the top one is the place where you redeem your little token for a guinness. I drank the whole glass! My claim to guinness fame. It'll be the first and last though...there's just something very blurrrrrrp about Guinness. It's dark and hoppy and malty and bitter......maybe with a bit of lemonade it might be OK!
Dublin also has the Jamieson Factory...(Greg has been enjoying Irish Whiskey and so he says another sample won't go down too badly!!) and the National History museum and the National library which holds a copy of all the books that have been published...
And of course it has the castles...
And the pubs..
Ie 'the oldest pub in Ireland', the Brazen Head (which Seans in Athlone says is wrong and that THEY are the oldest pub in Ireland!!!)...
And it has comedy..which we've seen...
AND it has the wonderful live irish music and traditional irish dancing..which we're seeing again tonight because we love it!!
The only thing is...
We need another week to see everything...or maybe another year...
And once again, we want to stay longer...
But can't...
Because, Wales beckons..
See you there!!
