Ireland, here we come!!

Today we are heading down to Ireland. We left the house at 6 am because the plane was taking of at 7.30.
The ride was ok, the funniest part is taking off and landing. The rest of the planeride was just cloudy and sleepy.
On the plane they offered some buns and coffee or tea. The bun is nothing to recommend but the tea was ok.

On the plane I read a small brochure about Ireland. It became an island shortly after the last ice age and because of that there are not that many animals. There are only 26 native land mammals, but they have more than 400 spices of different birds. Omg! Hope I remembered to bring an umbrella…

We arrived just in time for lunch at the hotel. The hotel wasn’t big but it was really cozy. It´s called Glenogra Guesthouse and lies more or less centrally. One of the cool things is that it lies very close to some embassies. The one closest is the UK or maybe the American embassy, it’s hard to tell on the map. The hotel is also close to the national concert hall.
Hope we can find some play to watch, that would be cool!

In our room we dropped our bags at the floor and went straight out to the closest restaurant.
We were starving!!
We found a great restaurant almost on Merrion Road called Lobster pot. As you may have guessed, they serve sea-food. Unfortunately it was a little pricey, otherwise I think I could have eaten three more plates.
We didn’t order dessert after all, it was too expensive and we wanted to be able to eat the rest days of the trip as well.
After lunch we gather all the brochures we could find and tried to plan how to see as much as possible in Dublin before we went to the next place.


Well, that’s all for today
Have a nice one!
