Dublin, not Liverpool
Well, unfortunately our plans of taking the ferry over to Liverpool were scratched, due to the last minute decision to keep the ferries out of the rough Irish Sea that day. We were dissapointed, but managed to have a good day. Sean got a "European" haircut at a place called Trinity Barber Shop. That was awfully cute. We did some moooore shopping around the Grafton Street area, and seredipitiously found the greatest modern interior design treasure of my trip! It was this little lounge, called 40 AKA which we went in at an early hour.
It was fun though, cause they have Love Sac's everywhere, where Sean and I literally layed around for hours eating good food, good beer, and watching MTV
with are shoes off and feet up. The lighting effects were my favorite, they really put a lot of consideration into that, which I can always appreciate-- I think lighting can make or break a space, and this place proved that. The ceiling heights were really playful too, a very effective way to change things up that is usually overlooked. Exciting!
After that, we finally grabbed a hotel in Temple Bar, after lazily putting that task off all day, since we checked out of our other hotel (thinking we'd be in Liverpool for the night) and pretty much just passed out there (after Seans triple trek to find the car, haha suckkkaaa), knowing that our trip back was going to be an exhausting one the next day. The location was totally central to everything, which made slumber a challenge, considering the music really never stopped til morning, the glass smashing drunks persevered through the night, and the street sweeping that ensued by sunrise. If we weren't so tired, we clearly would've been glass smashing drunks, too.
Ah well, the breakfast was a delight in the morning, and so was our little flight to our stop over in
London. We spent three hours in the airport there (ok, so it's not the best way to see the city, but we can still say we've been there, shut uppp) and really had a laugh when we ate dinner at TGI Fridays...which was very offensively "American" themed; including giant graphics on the wall of tractor trailor trucks and circus tents; Clearly the best way to portray the USA! The menu was gross too, with all sorts of wannabe American slang terms, including an apostrophe after everythin' like we all speak like we're from rural Alabama. I blame our last three presidents for that skewed interpretation of our accents. We also felt like savages when we ate our bacon (which appearantly means HAM!) cheeseburgers with our hands...every other Brit in there was eating those and their french fries with a fork and knife. And I thought that they wanted to (with a Texas twang)... eat like an real American?!
After that we bought shotglasses to prove we've "traveled to London" and endured a long, but decent flight back to the States. Our fabulous trip was complete, with over a thousand photos in hand! I reccomend traveling to Ireland to anyone who like to be around happy people, beautiful scenery, ugly women (hah just kiddinggg) and interesting history. Awesooome place!



Im really happy that you got to explore that great country with one of the best tour guides and adventurists around!!! I'm still laughing about all your funny stories, adventures and that face you make when you inpersonate that freakin guy from Law and Order!!!! Hey what's that old lady's name??? If you got a slap on the ass, I wonder what I could get outta it!! By the way... You spelt the following words wrong: disappointed, preserved, traveled, recommendations, and hitchikers not hitchkikers. I think hitchkikers is an ethnic slur against jewish people.... I would spell check my adjustments to your mistakes cuz i suck @ fixing the spelling on words that were wrong. Hope that was a help to you... lol See ya soon. Love ya lil darlin!!!
