How I love the Irish!
Their accents are great, they are such friendly nice people and now I know why their color is green, seriously the parks are so green and beautiful. And strangly I only saw one redhead!
In Dublin, I got lunch at this great place right by our hostel, which by the way was not as great as Paris but it was still pretty good. I got a delicious soup which was all I've been craving. Afterwards, I took a long nap, because we had to get up really early to leave Paris from Dublin. Later on we met up with Kaitlyn and her Dad and got dinner at a pub. We all ordered bangers and mash which is amazing sausages on top of mashed potatoes covered in gravy. It was soooo delicious and I cleared my plate. We then went to Gogarty's, a pub in the Temple Bar district for some great Irish music and dancing.
There I met some Australians who were hilarious and so much fun. They were there for a professional Rugby tournament! I love meeting athletes. We had fun dancing and singing along. The most popular song in Dublin is "Country Roads" apparantly because the band kept singing it and everyone always sang along. So much fun.

The next day, I went my own way and went on a free tour of Dublin. I absolutely loved my tour guides accent, they are so funny. I actually had a run in with the president of Ireland while touring the Castle, small world! Trinity College was really beautiful and when we ended by the Green, I stayed there for some exploring. 
It's a big beautiful park, where everyone seems to congregate. It was such a great day, so the scenery was incredible. 
Afterwards, I met up with the girls again and we had a great dinner at another pub where the band was actually kind of a nuisance. They kept referring to us as Chicago and trying to get us to come sing irish songs. Usually I would've been all for it, if my voice wasn't terrible. I was getting over a cold and the guy just wouldn't give up, but alls ok because we still had a great night.Dublin was beautiful, I just wish I had more time there to explore the countrysides of Ireland. Someday I will though :]
