Ireland

This past weekend, 5 friends and I ventured over west to the beautiful island and countries of Northern Ireland and Ireland. Took a couple buses, the railway, and a ferry. Started in Belfast, NI and toured there for a couple days. Saw some great sights--check out my facebook photos! :) It was my first time staying in a hostel, and I have to say...they are quite nice! Cheap prices and friendly atmosphere. From there, we took a bus to Dublin, Ireland. Free walking tour of the city, and then a full day tour of the Wicklow Mountains, the east coast of Ireland, and then Glendalough and Sally's Gap. Again, feel free to check facebook for the photos! Made it back safe and sound after a lovely 6 day weekend traveling, being a tourist. Oooh another thing...Northern Ireland's currency is on the pound, and then when we got to Ireland, we found out they were on the Euro..so fun to experience a currency change. That's all for now. Check back in a couple weeks for my next post! xxx :)
