Travel Bite #2

Edinburgh, riding the bus bank from the day tour. The highlands were different from what I expected. But…..Amazing nevertheless. I didn’t see Nessie, I did learn more about Brazil though from this Brazilian guy I met. Seems like Lula didn’t do that much afterall, at least according to him. Interesting. Also met a Russian guy, a guy from rochester, and 2 girls from Michigan.

Edinburgh Airport, Its about 6am. Checkin should begin shortly. Surprisingly I’m no that tired. Theres a rugby tournament going on and literally every bed in town is booked. So here I am sleeping at the airport. And by the looks of things, I’m not the only one. Its alright, I grabbed an entire bench and I’m sleeping ok. Well usually only about 1hr at a time till I wake up and fall asleep again. but overall not too bad. Kinda hungry now though, gonna go hunt for food.

In Dublin, at the National Art Gallery waiting for the tour to begin. I’m a bit annoyed that they don’t allow pictures in these places in the UK. If Italy, the Vatican, France, etc do why not here?

Listening to a free concert in the National Gallery for a short break. Some ppl didn’t like Dublin but I’m liking it so far. The gallery is great! I really love Carvaggio work. And now I like Eva Gonzales and Vameer as well. Makes me wish I had checked out the art gallery in Britain now. Ah well, next time!

    Dublin sounds to be treating you better than it does most people. All I’ve ever heard from people who’ve been there are moans and graons
