Did I? Full moon. Coastal Ireland. Just after a rain, clouds are parting. Lunar eclipse. Seriously? Seriously.
In London today - seriously ridiculous getting here, my mistakes, but ah well, it added to the adventure right? And as it turns out, had to rent a car in Wales, I drove 6 hours to London. I love Wales. Definitely on my list to get back to. The driving was fun...stressful, yes. But fun.
Today - 8:30am-11pm, walked, took a double decker bus, river boat tour - learned quite a bit, saw A LOT! did the coolest things...ate at the oldest pub in England (lovely), walked Tower Bridge (while it was going up!), go Paddington Bear and book for K.K. (a must!), took pictures with the Royal Guard (what an AWFUL job...felt cheesy doing it, but it had to be done...), saw the changing of the Royal Mount (their horses are huge and gorgeous), did you know that the London Hilton was supposed to be 5 stories higher, but from the 5th floor penthouse you could see into the Queen's bedroom (oops! Plans cancelled.), and that the Marble Arch used to be outside Buckingham Palace but Queen Victoria hated it so much that she had a carriage made that was too wide to get through it so they moved the arch (wow!)
At any rate...got to make plans to get back to Dublin on Friday. Globe tomorrow night for Midsummer (yay!)...
This hostel was supposed to have wifi. It doesn't. Bummer.
Cheers!
