We did our first day trip outside of England.. we got the first flight out and the last flight home. It was a long day, but a good way to see other places for cheap!
We did the hop on hop off bus to get everything. The first stop on the bus was the U2 Graffiti Wall. It had some pretty cool stuff...
This was a pretty recently done according to our bus driver
Overall very impressive!
We went to St. Stephens park and had a wonder. It was pretty cool that day, but there was greenery everywhere so it was worth the detour :)
Outside the Christ Church Cathedral
This is Dublin's oldest cathedral. The crypt pretty cool.. the exhibit that stands out in my mind is the cat and the rat! They presumably chasing each other and got trapped in an organ pipe in the 1860s and became mummified.
This was definitely the highlight of our trip!
Being silly!
We had a proper tasting course...
We received a free pint of Guinness at the top of the factory.
The views were 360 of Dublin.. so it we had got to see where
everything was that we visited during the day.
Here are the highlights from our day in Dublin!
I didn't realize the harp on the Guinness brand was an Irish thing...
This bridge is in the shape of the harp
We stopped in the Temple Bar for a pint before we left. There was some live music going on, so it was a good place to prop up the feet for a little bit.
But no rest for us... we still had the grand Guinness tour to go!
There were a few famous visitors to the factor... I guess everyone loves their Guinness!
The views were 360 of Dublin.. so it we had got to see where
everything was that we visited during the day.
All the tours were booked up at the Jameson factory...
so we had to settle for just the obligatory photo out front :)
Fun times.... I think there may be more day trips in the future!
