Silence

We spent our last day in Dublin a little ways out of the city. We started with Powers Court, which was a beautiful estate, mostly made up of fantastic grounds and gardens. Once again, it was an extremely sunny day. Very, very bright.




I mentioned it was bright, right?



There was a very adorable Rapunzel tower. 





If I was a horse, I'd probably live here.




For lunch we went to the seaside village of Dun Laoghaire. It was such excellent weather we were able to take a really nice walk down the pier.





The view was amazing. Too bad I had to go to the bathroom and couldn't concentrate on loving it more.


They were bringing all the boats in for winter.
We had a little time to take one more walk down Grafton Street.


It's probably really lucky to see a rainbow in Ireland right?
 The closing dinner was held at an old hospital for war vets. It was an awesome building. There was a hedge maze out front, but they wouldn't let me go. I was bummed. Next time, right?


Of course the trip wouldn't be successful without a wee bit o' river dancing.


I loved Ireland, and I am very glad I got to go before I take off again for my next adventure. The best part: I breathed the same air as One Direction. Judge me, I don't even care. I've got a lot to do the next 13 days, I can't believe I'm already off to the next thing!
