Off to our next adventure

We are sitting in the Dublin airport waiting for our flight to Glasgow. We were having trouble finding a cheap flight that worked with our schedule to Edinburgh, so in a fit of frustration we booked our way to Glasgow, without really checking all our options. And after we booked we both said we wished we were going to Edinburgh. But oh well, we went on a pub crawl last night and met a girl from Glasgow who assured us it's an awesome place. 

I loved Dublin. We went to the Book of Kells, Christ Church Cathedral (where we had coffee in the crypt, near the mummified cat and rat they found in the pipe organ), took the hop on hop off bus all around the city, stopped in at the Museum of Ireland where they have some mummified people found in bogs, and, my personal favourite, the Guinness Storehouse, where we each poured a perfect pint and enjoyed it from the top floor looking down on the city. I will definitely be coming back though. I feel like there's lots we missed, and I would be happy doing some of the same things again too. We did spend a lot of time just walking around, which was nice. I love looking at the old buildings. Wish we had more of that in Canada.

Yeah we are planning on taking the train there tomorrow. Didn't realize it was that easy until the hotel lady told us. Also booked a Loch Ness/ Highlands tour for Sunday :)
