so lets back up a bit..
we get into the hostle after that long ride down the middle of the road....all the wya from the docks into dublin...ugh.....
so the people behind the desk tell us i booked only 1 night online..and so i dont get a free tour...and they charge me 30 euro extra..whatever i pay it..and go to sleep....
i get up and of course check my records....go down and show the same lady on my computer screen i did book 2 nights...i want my free tour and 30 euros back.
"oh yeah ok i dont know what i was thinking hahhaha"
yeah i know what you were thinking hun....pretty sly...
anyway i get my money back..and get booked on the free tour to kilkenny.....
and we went on that today..pretty sweet....
stopped at the ruins of st. kevins monestary...only remaining tower left with its roof on...nice graveyard and ruins of at least 4 or 5 chapels...and a cathedral....really nice....nice walk as well...
next was a dolmen....largest ever found..meaning the top stone weighs at least 100tons....its huge....not size wise liek west kennet...but that top stone does look huge..we were too
tired to walk out to it....took a pic from afar.....cool..
onto kilkenny town..biggest hurling team and town and a long tradition of it for the longest time back....nice medieval castle left..had a great lunch...went into the tower which was free adn watched a video of the history..cool...and waled the town looking for cheap souveniers.......found a nice treat for teddy as well.....a few little things actually....
then a nice bus home....watching the footie game.....relaxing....trying to save money.
trying to figure out how to work around this dela of tedy not being able to drive grizz's car now that some ass stole the catalytic converter off of it......think ive got it covered...
and we saw a flier at the hostle...i guess at the derry location of this hostl (north ireland) they need helpers..so for 2-3 hours work you can get a free room..maybe a free tour....sweett!!!! thats just up our price range....so we asked about that..will find out tomorrow morning.
forgot we still need to pay the lat 100 or so bucks to get into pennsic..and gas to and from there...ugh...so gona see if i cant work at teh pi..and have H help us out there...with us
working to pay for that.....
man thsi was fun....but..no more trips for a while.....and im seriously gona look for a part time job between classes to help pay people back.....might not be able to afford a small keg for the wedding now....
that sucks.....just wanna go home....and sleep for 2 days..then try adn figure out how to fix the van and get out ot pennsic later....ugh so tired....
ireland is nice tho.....were just so over this trip tho.
