  1. Dublin Javi!! i have been there one month ago, but in Dublin City, not in Galway. A friend of mine is living there and she went to Galway last weekend, i would like go there too, because she told me it is incredible!!
    Although, I´m sorry, but i want to visit her on March, so i will not go with the School in April. If I know new things about there i told you, now i´m going to explain a little things...

    About Galway, I have a picture about Cliff of Moher, it is impresive!! I can´t upload it here, so i send you by e-mail. The Cliffs rise 120m above the Atlantic Ocean and spread over 8km to reach a height of 214m.

    And about my visit, I back here with good feelings about Dublin, it´s a beutiful wet city, wet because of the weather and the river that cross it. There were a lot of Irish pubs with live music. I think Irish people are kind, open and funny. I recomend you visit the Guinness Factory, it´s very interesting and you can taste a pint of Guinness Beer, besides they lend you a headphones to listen the history and important thinks about this in each part of the museum.
    Other day we went to tourist guide around the city, but this was a different way about tourist guide. There is a new company that you don´t need a ticket to receive the tour, they used to do it for free and if you like it and you want to pay something at the end, depending of your economy and how much have you like it, you can give money to guide. The company works in more cities, this is their webside: http://www.newdublintours.com/. Moreover, they have english and spanish workers, so you can choose the language... I liked it so much, because they told us some tricks about the city, for example, if you go to Trinity College with a student from there, he or she and two friends could enter to the Old Library for free, so the next day we did it and i realized this Library was the most beautiful that i have never seen, old smell, books, story... Impressive!! There is The Book of Kells, it´s a gospel manuscript famous throughout the world (Website: http://www.bookofkells.ie/).

    Well, i think that´s all or i´m going to be bore you... if you want know more things about Dublin, please ask me or I can send you my friend e-mail, she will be pleasure to help you, because she is from Teruel and she loves visits from here!!

  3. I have also been in Dublin 2 years ago and I think that it is a fantastic city because the people are closer, the party is similar than in Spain, the only diference is that people drink beer because the other alcoholic drinks are very expensive. I also have been in the Trinity college and in his famous library and I agree with Bea that it is fantastic; I like so much this city because is small, you can visit it in only a weekend, we stay more that a weekend so we also have time to visit the Ginness and the Jameson factory, to bought a lot of things it the comercial street that I can't remember the name but there were a lot of shops; we also went to a small village that I neither can remember the name, I think that it begins for O, in which you can see seals and I also like it too much.
    We went for Sant Patrick's days and I was very surprised for the people; I can't say how much people can be there, but was incredible because all of them was wearing green clothes with clovers painted in their faces...this day was the day we chose to go to the village and we meet a lot of people that goes to Dublin in the way I have said from all the villages. The girls in March with shorts!!!I think that is incredible and if I was you and you have the opportunity you must go to see Dublin in Sant Patrick's day.
