The first full day in Dublin was awesome, max and i met in the lobby and headed out into the streets of Dublin, i couldnt find sam she had went somewhere i guess.. so max and headed towards some pubs because i was so stoaked on ordering my first legal beer and better yet finding out what the real taste of guiness! the first pub we walked into was right near the famous temple bar, but we chose a less tourist one to meet the locals and save a euro! it was a great choice the guiness was flat out amazing my favorite beer now for sure! its very thick and mmmmmmmmmmm! and yea call me a light weight but one beer i caught me a little buzz! the bar tender was really cool, we asked for a picture and he let us mosey behind the bar and act like i was serving my self a beer!
there was a great guitarist playing dublin songs, and it was a cool first pub experience!
So I can now officially say yes the guinnes i much different and far better than in the states!
so after that pub we walked on and went into some shops checked out different things, and then sadly ended up eating at Mcdonalds... I had a double cheese burger off the eurosaver menu and payed two euros.. and yea its just like in america.
after that we ended up heading back and on the way back max talked me into checking out a sex shop... all i can say after that ia that europeans are dirty!! real real dirty!! but i learned a bunch of new thing that i didnt think was ever possible, ha ha just kidding..
Any ways when we got back to the hostel i saw sam there and we hung out for a while and i met some cool people in the lobby! One girl from argentina named lujan, and another girl from china!
The girl from china was a sweet heart i loned her my adapter for plugging in her laptop right before Sam, Max, And i went out! Ha ha sam and max thought i was crazy and would never see my adapter agian and basically thought i was an overtrusting idiot! but guess what when i came back my adapter was waiting for me at the front desk with my name on it! Carma Baby Carma! ha ha
The night first night out was awesome we all ventured ooff into a bar that at first we thought was to crowded but when we started waliking out a local stopped us stating that there was more seating down stairs! There was a nice lady bar tender working and i asked her to surprise me with a drink and she gave me a hienekin lol.. She might of thought i was american!
but i took it, liked it, smiled, and payed my 4,50 euro!
we hung out got caught up in great conversation! then all of a sudden max didnt feel like hanging out any more, he seemed a bit tired and headed back. So sam and i hung out and kept talking untill the band that was three feet to our left got so loud we were trying to read each others lips! ha ha didnt work out so we went to another pub! This pub was pretty mellow with a band that ended up asking the bar for silence and sam and i were just getting to loud! australian and an american idk it just wasnt possible for us to keep our voices down! We ended up leaving because of that and the band tried to charge us 8 euro.. I told them i was out of money and the really cool bartender had our back! I would have like to stay longer because of the bar tender rocked! he was funny as hell and had a lot to talk about. he had been arrested 32 times in america ha ha. we talked all about americans and the country.. unfortiantly they had a lot of great points and i had to agree, we got along great! hes half the reason i was soooo loud!
so the band hated us but the bar tender loved us!
Sam and i went to the pub kiddie cornered from our hostel, it was called the swan! The bar tenders loved giving the happy, easy going american shit! (me) ha ha but it was a blast and i kept getting winks from them with kept the insults light hearted! sam didnt understand why they were being like that but it was fun cause i just kept joking back! they were jelous of the hat susan gave me i think ha ha! and kept asking sam where she found me! after all the fun and games we ended up staying after hours talking with some regulars and had another great conversation with the bartenders! I met these two irish me that loved me, and they gave us great ideas for travelling west irealand! after i recieved the nick name mr fuck'n bubbley from the Irish (with there awsome accent ha ha) So eventually we had to leave the pub because after 00:30 (12:30 pm) because its a law in irealand to close a pub by this time...
so we took pictures with two of our new friends out front and walked right across the street two the hostel! Sam and i stayed up till 3:30 and saw max in the lobby around three when sam was showing me pictures! I guess max headed back out... we werent really sure? but any ways sam and i went back to an empty room and talked a little more and went to bed!
2/12/10
this morning we got up at 9:00 because we were planning to get our complementry breakfast and take a walking tour that started at eleven and went for three hours!
I dont know what it was but i was sooooooooooo tired this morning, i think the jet lag that i thought i wasnt gonna get hit me! because it wasnt a hang over ha ha, otr maybe partly.. but i finally got out of bed went and ate five pieces of toast with some milk and oj, then when straight back to bed for about an hour and missed the waliking tour.. when i was done napping i was still really tired but i took a shower and felt much better!
today sam and i did our own walking tour becasue max went on the one with the hostel! we saw a lot it was really great! we walked for hours and took some cool pics! We went into a cool little shop and ate some fries which i almost poured sugar all over untill the nice lady caught me and said no no no heres some salt! ha ha! it was in a different laungauge and looked like salt.. idk. but the fries kicked ass and then we continued walking and made our way back to the hostel!we havnt seen max so i started writing this really long blog and now im caught up! i hope!
so im sure we have a cool night ahead, but i cant get two crazy because im looking forward to skyping my momma tomorrow morning at six my time which is ten o clock in reno! I miss my momma soooooo much so i will make that work no matter how tired i may be! im pretty sure my internal clock has changed gears but we'll find out!
