Then onto Dublin with music blasting in the car. We finally pulled in to a clean, new hotel, and headed to get Lindsay's and Lucy's ears double-pierced. I had gotten mine triple-pierced in Scotland and it's always been a special reminder of that trip and my best friends at the time, who did it with me. I hadn't known until recently that the girls were thinking about double-piercing but it was sweet to see those two best friends go through that bonding experience together and create a permanent memento in Ireland.
Walking in Dublin on this Friday night was like swimming upstream in a fish-packed river - it seems all of Europe between the ages of 18-28 is here, dressed up and laughing and talking outside street cafes. It's a really fun energy but weirds me out thinking that Lindsay will be joining the ranks of the rising generation in just one year.
Then the best Indian food EVER - every single thing we ordered was amazing. I love my Amber India at home, but there are only a couple of things that wow me there. This meal had so many delicious, different flavors! We were keeling over with delight and left completely stuffed.
Then home for an early bed-time - we wake up early for the ferry to Wales tomorrow!
We will never forget our night in Knappogue Castle |
