At this point I would like to introduce my guest author for the month. It is none other than my sister Lara, who flew all the way from SA to meet me in Dublin and has spent the past month travelling with me. Say hello Lara.
Lara: HI!
Damian: As you can see she is not one for many words. No sorry that is crazy of course she is! come on say something more!
Lara: I have no idea what to say.
Damian: Why don't you start by telling everyone about Dublin?
Lara: Dublin was awesome. The best part for me was the fact that we could catch a tourist bus and see everything from monuments, old buildings, the Guinness brewery and Jameson distillery. We saw it all. Two places that really stood out for me was the Jameson distillery and the Viking Museum. Why? Simply because it was interesting to see how much effort went into making one bottle of whiskey. The Viking place was interesting because it went into great detail to explain how life was when they were around. Also the interactive exhibits were fun and I was able to write my name in runes!
What made travelling exciting for me was being able to meet lots of interesting people from all over the world at the hostels we stayed at. It started in Dublin with Australian girls, a German guy and an American couple. It’s fascinating listening to them talk about their own travels and the places they had visited.
Damian: I have to agree with my sister, Dublin was amazing. The whole time I was there I could not get the song Molly Malone out of my head. Especially after actually being able to see the statue! The Guinness brewery was the best tour I have ever taken and I learnt so much about the art of beer making, something that has always fascinated me. To top it all off we even got to enjoy a pint on the roof of the building overlooking the whole of Dublin...breathtaking!
