Hello all! So this week my adventures in Ireland took me on a daytrip to the city of Howth (about a 30 minute train ride outside of Dublin.) It was gorgeous, and has some o the best seafood I have ever eaten. Seriously. There are a number of hiking trails around Howth, so we took the beginner one, which ended up taking 2 or 3 hours, but it was well worth it and a lot of fun. It might have taken so long because we all took a number of photos, I even pretended to be the little mermaid on a rock, dreams do come true! After this, I explored Dublin a little more and went down to the Samuel Barclay Beckett Bridge in Dublin. There is also an old pirate ship and ferris wheel down by the docks as well. To Dale and everyone else: I did not go on the ferris wheel (I am afraid of them) but I will concur the London Eye next week, stay tuned!
