the latest

So sorry i haven't been updating you guys.. I have been super busy!!! Thursday I went to the East-side of London and it was definitely an adventure. I went to a Bangladesh community and it was quite interesting to say the least and then two blocks away was a very wealthy part of the city with Louis Vuitton and Tiffany and Co. stores on the street. Pretty neat! Then we walked for about 5 miles to the London Bridge and other various places around. Thursday ended with a great dessert from the Giraffe with two of my good friends on the trip.

Friday came wayyy too early because we had to wake up at 4am to go on the tube, to the train, to the airport by 8ish for DUBLIN (Also pronounced DOOOB-LYNN.. by the 5 best friends). We got there early so we could take it this amazing weekend get-a-way. Dublin, Ireland is only 1 hour away from the airport in London. pretty easy i would say! It took us no time to get there and get through security. We got a cab ride to our hostel and he was so funny and said some funny things about Ireland. "Money saved is money drank". Our hostel was so perfect. It was right in the middle of the city and beside everything. We got settled in our 6 bunk-bed room and then headed out for the city. The 5 of us took a city-tour and it was very informative. We went to St. Patrick's Church and toured it. Verryy pretty. Then we went to the GUINESS factory!! IT WAS GREAT! Told us everything we needed to know about how Guiness was founded. At the top there was a view of the city of Dublin.

Saturday we woke up early to go on a country-side tour that was from 9am to 5pm. Most amazing thing ever. We took a ton of pictures and were very adventurous to say the least. The views of the mountains were absolutely outstanding. The 5 of us had the best time in Ireland and we seriously did not want to leave. it was so much fun!! I want to go back.. but now i am starting to call London my home for sure. We took a vacation in our vacation and it was great!

Europeans: hard to understand, food is sometimes good... sometimes not good, diet cokes are the smallest drinks ever here (i miss sonic diet cokes and their ice), they dress funny, the kids with Irish or British accents are so precious and i LOVE them, oh and another thing.. dont ever take America for granted.. because when you are gone you really compare things to dollars/ america does this better and it makes me so proud to be an American!! love you all! Sorry for not blogging everyday! I will try!! This week should be really fun- i get to see my 3rd grade teacher, Mrs. Griffis, on Saturday!!! YAY!!! I can't wait!!
