Hey Everyone! In case you didn't know, Jason and I set up a travel blog that will automatically be sent out as an email everytime we write in it! This way you can keep up with our journeys if you want to. We officially survived our first day in Ireland and it is amazing here! The people are all really nice and pretty funny. Our hostel man gave u...

We arrived in Dublin by bus. Being a little thrown off from a restless night, we laid across the back seats and slept most of the way. The bus driver's here though are a little more assertive then perhaps they are in Canada. A number of times I was thrown straight clear of the seat. Of the little scenery I remained awake to see, I could not help...

We got into Dublin on Tuesday and found our hostel. The hostel was really nice we had a four bedroom room all to ourselves. We dropped off our stuff and headed out. We walked down O'Connell street which is named after the man who brought rights to Roman Catholics in Ireland. It had a lot of shops and restaurants on it and was always fairly busy....

So far it hasnt stopped raining yet but its not too windy, hopefully we will get a break soon. This morning we took a walk along the river, which isn't the open, grass plained river i was expect...

I decided to take a month of my life and fulfill my dreams of traveling around the world. Since i do not have the financial abilities to take a long time off work and travel, i have broken up "the world" into smaller, more pocket book friendly sections. My first trip was the the UK, Ireland and France.

I arrived safe but tired... I haphazardly found my hostel with my map but at first finding street names was a problem. Now my eyes can pick out the blue signs against the stone buildings! I walked a bit, crossed the Ha'Penny Bridge and through Temple Bar to the flood of tourists on Grafton. Found a park to sit in (St Stephen's) and heard free li...

We, I've been using we alot. So M&M took a train from Trier towards Dusseldorf for our 8 pm flight to Dublin. It was a long day, but we did have a nice train ride along the scenic Mosel River and sat at Starbucks for awhile before we could check in for our flight. We got on the plane at about 8:30 and took off. Marie didn't do so well, she w...
