3-2-14 Pints on pints on pints


- wake up at 5 am even though we discussed waking up at 5:20. I thought max kept snoozing his alarm and I didn't want to be associated with him so after the 4th time it went off at 5 15 I angrily woke him up. Turns out it wasn't his alarm. Whatever we woke up at 5 15 instead of 5 20
- walked down the street to the bus stop around 5 40. Got a little lost. Luckily a bar across the street still going strong from the night before had the fire alarm go off so everyone was outside, including tenants of the building (I guess not so lucky). One guy in his pjs walked us to the bus at 6 am. You know you're in Scandinavia when...
- made the bus to the train station. Bought train tickets and got on the most beautiful and efficient train ever to the airport
- very easy flight. Empty. Max and I had our choice of seats. 
- Dublin!!! Such a beautiful city. Got to our hostel via an airport bus, dropped off our bags, and headed to lunch. Got a traditional Irish breakfast...yup I ate sausage 
- the waiter sat down with us and drew places to go on the map. Would have gotten a big tip in the US, but oh wait we're in Europe 
- walked to the Guinness factory for a tour. So much fun. Got a free pint at the end. The lady never took our ticket, so we got another free pint downstairs and poured it ourselves. So much beer in my belly 
- walked back to the hostel, checked in, went back out to grab some cheap pizza. So nice that we can eat semi affordably here! 
- had to get shamrock shakes at McDonald's. #americantourists
- bed early ish because we have to wake up at 5 30 tomorrow for an all day tour to Galway!
