last night in Dublin. . . . .

It's been our last day in Ireland. We woke up early, jumped on the hop-on, hop-off bus and went around Dublin. We stopped and toured Kilmainham Gaol. Which is an old jail set in Dublin that housed people that were trying to gain Ireland independence. It was so interesting to learn about Easter Rising and about all of the executions that went on and how much people during that time frowned upon it. It was so fascinating.

After that the 6 of us girls went shopping, got lunch, and just came back, packed a little and rested up so we will be ready to go out tonight. My birthday is also tomorrow. It is very odd to not be with my family and friends, but from this trip I have gained 5 new, wonderful friends that I can't wait to celebrate with! So watch out Dublin because....it's my birthday!!
