Dublin/St Patrick's Day

What we've been up to since we've been here - is a lot (:
Yesterday Lianne and I decided we'd do a day trip to Dublin. So we hopped onto a bus and then onto a train, and were on our way. First of all, Ireland is beautiful! Second, every town name is fun to say. We  got off the train, and immediately proceeded to getting lost. At one point, we were getting frustrated because we couldn't find the right street; turned around and there was Oscar Wilde's house right there! It was also a super nice sunny day which was AWESOME! We have experienced the true Irish rain too. So we're getting the whole shabang! The streets were filled with people, many of which were doing cool things. There was a man sculpting a sand lion, a live statue with a gorilla (fake), an Irish dancer, and also a bunch of buskers. So it was pretty sweet. We're also getting pretty good at using city transit...kind of.
Today we got to go to a St. Patrick's Day parade, which was really neat. Also we saw traditional Irish dancing. It's a bit like tap dance/river dancing. We then went to an Irish pub - had Irish Guinness, and heard traditional Irish music. Live. It was a wonderful day!! Tonight we also got to hang out with the niece of the couple we're staying with, and she's so energetic! A little two year old. So we've been using up our energy for the day (:
Tomorrow we are on our way to see the Dun Luce Castle and Giants Causeway. So we'll have pictures to follow.
