We woke up early Saturday morning and walked around Dublin. We checked out of our hostel around 10 and headed to the airport. Our flight lasted around an hour. We then followed the signs to the train station and ended up getting on the slowest train ever, or as the guy behind us said 'This is the bloody slowest train ever!!!!' .. we love listening to them talk.

An hour later we were in London. We checked in to our hostel, which is the prettiest place ever. The walls are hot pink and the floors are covered in glitter. It doesn't take much to amuse us haha. We then walked over to London Bridge, which is around 5 minutes away and seen it. Then we walked along the river and found something to eat. We ended up eating crepes and the only thing we could really identify in it was chicken. After this we went to get ice cream. We walked in and told the guy what we wanted and he looked at us like we were crazy. Apparently you have to pay first at another area and then walk back down, give him the receipt, and then get your ice cream. This confused us, especially since we couldn't understand what he was saying We then went back to the hostel (around 7pm) and decided to lay down 'for a few minutes'. We woke up and it was 5 am the next day. Oops.. I think the jet lag is finally getting to us. Now its Sunday morning (we think, were so confused with the days) and we just finished breakfast. Before breakfast we went back to the bridge and stared at it for a little while and then we found one of those famous red phone booths and took a lot of pictures in it, we were way too excited by this haha. Now we're going to go get on the 'tube' (subway) and try to find Buckingham Palace in a little bit. We'll attempt to update again tomorrow.
