After a slightly eventful flight we are in Dublin! Our flight leaving PDX left an hour late and was able to rebook everyone on the flight except the two passengers traveling to Dublin due to their not being anymore flights out of Chicago today. Nice. So we RAN through Ohare had to take a tram, recheck in and go back through security and made it with like five minutes to spare. So much for eating dinner there. But when we opened the shade on the window seven hours later to the most amazing sunrise, it all seemed worth it.
Amazingly enough when we got here it was morning, again, so we have not really slept in 24 hours. I was able to sleep about three hours on the plane but Kevin only slept an hour and is feeling it for sure right now since this is the first time we have sat. We hit the ground running today and have already marked some things off our do to list, like the amazing Dublin Castle. We have also already sat and talked with some uber friendly Irish people ( i make kev ask them questions because I love to hear them talk) and are starting to get our barings in this BUSY city. Our hotel is right in the middle of all the hustle and bustle and is SUPER convient since we are walking everywhere. We haven't actually got in the room yet so I haven't been able to search for bed bugs, although I can't say I would be overly surprised :)
Please excuse any typos and keep mind I am typing all of this on ou iPod so it may not be very detailed or well done, I apologize!
Tonight we will search for a firestation to trade a teeshirt with and shop a little then we will SLEEP. Thanks for following and we'll post again soon!
Side note- one big downfall- we asked for ranch for our frenchfries and the people looked at us like we were crazy! They don't know what it is!! How will we make it without ranch?
