After sleeping in the Airportat Stanstead as there were no good buses into the airport when I needed I got on the flight with no bagage and headed for Dublin. I found the hostel very luckily without a map and then very unluckily there was no shower for me to use until 3pm - and I feel yucky!
So I bought a coffee at McDonnalds and used their bathroom to brush my teath gel my hair etc - it must have looked very weird to the others in the bathroom!
Whitney was running late to meet me so I got a bit of lunch, watched the crickett in a pub in the Tembple Bar area with a guiness - perfect.
Whitney and her friend Brian came into Dublin at about lunch, Brian had things to do so Whit and I walked all oer Dublkin and probably out of it - we walked for miles and miles and I was SO happy when we got back to the hostel - not that the walk wasnt nice - I Was just exhausted.
In the evening Whit and I went out drinking, it was a bank holiday so most places were closing early. It was poring with rain and we managed to find a place with music booming out of it - cheesy music! We walked in to find people doing the moonwalk, putting their T-Shirts above their heads etc - this wasnt the strange part. The strange part was there was only one other person under70 in the whole place!! Some private function for a couple's (Lesbians) aniversery. What was even more strange was he only other under 70 person in the place was also a girl called Whitney also from the states - random!
So after a crazy amount of beer we stumbled back for bed.
Inthe morning with a killer hangover we just about managed to do everything we needed to do. I drove Bryan and Whitney to the Airport and said goodbye and spent the rest of the day sight seeing, it was lovely and I saw everything I wanted to I LOVE DUBLIN! I fell asleep in the park for a couple of hours and then it was time for my flight - a brief but amazing time!
