“A very nice hotel with few amenities”

We only stayed here for one night but for the life of me, I can't figure out why the Irish Hotel Assoc. gives this property four stars. The rooms are nice, the people helpful but the amenities are few. No pool, jacuzzi, gym, business center, practical gift shop or spa facilities are either on site or available. While we were there, the nice restaurant, Jules, was not open. The Baileys Bar was sufficient for pub grub and drinks but that was about all. The Barista Bar was great for lunch, surprisingly tasty and good food.

The front desk computer was terribly slow, so much that it couldn't print out directions to the Dublin Airport. Our receipt for expenses paid was completely unreadable on the right hand side due to printer malfunctions. And don't even try to use the pay by the second internet connection in the lobby, it is slower than a 240 baud modem! That particular annoyance cost me 6 euro just to print out our boarding passes!

You can get a voucher for wi-fi in your room or use of a leisure club down the street a bit. The breakfast was something we never got to try because we had to leave the hotel at a very early hour but they did prepare a small continental breakfast for us (at 4:00 am) to eat in the lobby lounge. They were also very good with the 3:30 am wake up call.

I was completely satisfied with what we had but was underwhelmed with the offerings available.

Sunday, Celine packed us up and brought us to see Trim Castle. Trim is the most complete remaining Norman fortress in Europe. It's also where Braveheart was filmed. The castle is amazing. Every piece of it was built to defend those inside. The planning put in to it was extremely detailed and very effective. One thing for sure, I will never see …

OK, I'll be the first to admit that I'm late with this last entry of our travel blog. Bill and I really were exhausted when we reached Trim. We checked in early to the hotel, went to lunch in the lobby Barista Bar (very tasty lunch specials) and then went back to our room for a short nap.

The weather was very chilly, windy and slightly …

Stepping off the plane in Dublin today, I experienced a whirlwind of emotions and physical feelings; excitement, homesickness, exhaustion, and the overwhelming feeling of being in way over my head. A few deep breaths later and a cup of tea with Kim and my new friend Dave, and I started to feel a bit more at ease. As the day goes by I start to feel more and more at home. This being said, I apologize, my brain still isn't exactly functioning as Kim and I have ...

... City our flight from Chicago to Dublin was actually on time and surprisingly pleasant. I think it helped that our plane was half green and had shamrocks painted all over it. Brilliant. Audra was mesmerized by the in-flight mini-4-course meals so that provided some in-flight entertainment. We attempted to sleep but I swear they just kept feeding us. I think I maybe slept about 2 hours. Add that to the on-and-off 1.5 hour ...

Dogs and Mice

... wanted to see an early one because I had to do lesson plans for my second full week of teaching. The previous weekend I had gone to stay at Michael and Aslin's when I should have been planning lessons and now I was going to a movie. I always get my work done but I do tend to put it off until the last evening I can do it.

I went to see The Social Network which was AMAZING and I would totally recommend! There were a few differences I noticed ...
