In short, everything good ends: money, holidays (both of intimanente linked xD), and Wednesday, back to the college routine. Of course, this year and in second.
Dublin ... is ... and sad to say ... a city that is seen in less than a day. Has interesting things and beautiful, majestic buildings and even city is bustling in the morning, but ... offers nothing to the visitor who wants something more than a pint of Guinness in Temple Bar, at least we could go one day the city and go to Galway on the west coast of the island. But for a trip in Spain would invest something like two hours there we did in nearly four. In what is certain is that the cliffs of Moher, the south of Galway Bay are spectacular. And to think that what we saw from there was the Atlantic is all its magnificence ...
But anyway, who wants to see that
minutes before leaving Barajas, a server.
already in Dublin, Borja trying to communicate ...
O'Connell Bridge
One of the cathedrals of Dublin, which was outside preciosa, pero lo que era por dentro... decepcionaba cosa mala: la Christchurch Cathedral.
Christchurch Cathedral.
Esta iglesia, St. Aouden's, es de origen normando. Es, sin duda alguna, y pese a su rñigido aspecto exterior, una de las más interesantes cosas que ver en Dublín. Mezcla historia antigua, religión, arte...

El "castillo" de Dublín. No sé que tiene de castillo, salvo en nombre, porque lo que es es un edificio militar con un patio de armas, recuerdo del dominio británico.
I guard the castle.
A monument to the fallen soldiers
The vehicle traffic lights were significantly higher in some areas. Who knows why.
On Sunday, back to the hostel, we met with a demonstration of Sinn Fein at O'Connell Bridge. Sure, we wondered where the people were for the rest of the city. Here we find it.
As shown, in addition to territorial claims, asking for more. Note that this happened one or two days before the announcement of the IRA.
group of protesters in the demonstration of Sinn Fein xD
sure more than one and this photo was missing right? xD
And it's sure to also missed her xD
Chips with curry and rice to take away.
met an American in the hostel, Nathan, and he went out by the Temple Bar on Saturday.
By the way, now that we're on the Temple Bar, is not no big deal. It is an area of bars, like any other, but not anything special. Very mythical, but very disappointing. Oh, and a bar would not let us enter because of the coat of a server Borja and suck.
Borja Nathan.
Here we were at the time of lunch in a cafe where, if you asked ... I put one in a position, not American coffee that shit ...!!
I must say that when they saw me take the two cups of coffee with one hand, the, I suppose, Chinese were freaking coffee. Because yes, it was full of Asians.
O `Connell Memorial
Here I am with Molly Malone, the fishmonger who appears dead for the old market ... What a pair of pears is the aunt, eh?
This Irish delight was busy with a concert of traditional Irish music.
Trinity College
A sculpture composition scrotumtightening in Merrion Square.
I with the best of Oscar Wilde.
The emblem of Dublin: Three Castles in a "happy city where citizens obey", or something. It does not matter ...
A boat-bar in the Liffey.
The view of the Liffey from the last bridge over the river, the East Link Bridge, with the port and the Irish Sea at sunset. At this
point is fair to say that Dublin is a city that is easily in one day to visit. We were four, and the truth is that we get bored. No offers almost nothing to do with historical or cultural importance, and as I say, covered in an hour. The National Gallery, the most important gallery, star work is a painting by Caravaggio, "The taking of Christ."
On Monday we went to see the Cliffs of Moher and Galway City:
the way (although this photo is around), went through Dunguaire Castle, a beautiful fortress located in Galway Bay.
I perched on the wall xD
Poulnabrone dolmen. Something magnificent and spectacular, no doubt. Simply beautiful.
And finally we come to the Cliffs of Moher: indescribable Great ... sublime. A sight to see. Here is a sad sample:
Castle Cliffs of Moher.
Borja and I with the cliffs in the background. In case you did not notice, go xD
I, from the castle, with the Atlantic in the background. And windy.
A vision unspeakable.
After a good hot meal. Mmm ...
This is the Atlantic from Blackhead Lighthouse, me in the middle
in Galway, "this" is called English Arch why ... What? Because we are worth it, period ...
Church of St. Nicholas in Galway. Inside it was curious, with a baptismal font, I think, was Norman, and a huge Celtic cross. Very nice, overall.
Beautiful Galway acaltarillado detail.
On Tuesday we returned to Dublin, and finished to see what was left:
I met Joyce.
Borja in the Phoenix Park
The Wellington Monument. An obelisk, and little else.
I sentadito on the couch, say, by Arthur Guinness ...
A pint in the Gravity Bar in the Guinness Factory really know, to glory.
... with enviable views of Dublin ... Everything that can be enviable Dublin, of course.
lasted just looking like flavored glory
xD And this St. Patrick's Cathedral.
St. Patrick
And again ...
The Four Courts.
Grattan Bridge at sunset.
and Grattan, in a lovely sepia ^ ^
The Custom House, a beautiful building.
And on Wednesday morning, bags packed, bound for Spain.
Well, Dublin is interesting, but like I said, is in one morning. And there is nothing exceptional. However, Ireland itself is a beauty. In short, the next, Eastern Europe or a tour of Scotland xD
