So far one of the most interesting trips I've taken was to Dublin. Honestly the city of Dublin is a giant tourist trap in need of some saving. It's got it's interesting pieces and history but the real pots of gold are out in the countryside! Dublin has some good architecture including Trinity College which was gorgeous! the Spire, and some really fun places but they're all crazy expensive!
We stayed in a hostel called Jacob's Inn and it was like staying in a really nice hotel compared to our other travels! it was quite a nice little place. The second day in Ireland we booked a Wild Wicklow Tour and took a bus around the countryside of Ireland and had the most amazing experience. It was green, rainy, gorgeous and reminded me so much of home! Mountains, forest and the best part... the nicest people I've ever met! They were so friendly and started small talk and said the sweetest things to us!
I would love to move to the country parts of Ireland if I ever really want the simple quiet life. It was such an amazingly relaxing place to be and see things. Once again, reminding me of the Wyoming hospitality. I keep seeing why people talk about coming to Wyoming. We are really nice bunch of people. Europe has shown me some flashy sides to life but Ireland showed me the humble side. I loved the Wicklow Tour! We stopped at historic sites, went to lakes, the sea, and some really interesting places like the PS I Love You Bridge :) and of course I took a picture with it! haha Hilary Swank and Gerard Butler were in the same spot as me!

One of the last things we did was walk to Dublin Castle, the few historic sites, grabbed some food and then went to see the Great and Powerful OZ movie that was phenomenal! But word to the wise. Three days in Dublin in the rain is too much time. Go for a day or two or leave the city and explore the country side if you can. It's a gorgeous country to go and witness first hand. Especially this Wyoming boy who's a little homesick.
