Weekend in Dublin

This past weekend was my first time leaving Spain in over a month! My roommate and I traveled to Dublin, and I can honestly say it was one of the best weekends I have ever had traveling. Everything was just wonderful. We stayed at a B&B outside of the city in order to be closer to the airport for our late arrival on Thursday, and early departure on Sunday. I surely took advantage of the breakfast part of the B&B being that I have not eaten breakfast in over a month! We're still only offered coffee and tea for breakfast, so I was overjoyed at the sight of bacon and eggs.

We started the trip by visiting the Guinness Storehouse, which included a tasting and demo on how to properly pour the beer. We had a fun time roaming around and taking pictures.

After that, we went on a free walking tour around Dublin to see some of the historical sites.

We took a break on the tour at the first tea shop in Dublin. I had chai tea and a blueberry scone!

Then we made our way to Trinity College, and to see the Book of Kells.

                                     

And of course, St. Patrick's Cathedral!

And I had to buy myself some pearls!

Just a few pictures on the bridges of Dublin!

This is where we went for dinner that night:

Then moved on to TEMPLE BAR!

Had Irish cream in Ireland!

The next day we went to Howth, a town outside of Dublin to walk around the cliffs. 

That night we went to a show called "The Irish House Party," which included a three course traditional Irish meal and a show with music and step dancing. 

And that was the end of my weekend! Looking forward to all of my trips to come!
