Day 9 - Dublin Take Two - Final Day

Today is our final day of vacation before we head back to the States. We spent our final day in Dublin, Ireland surrounded a crazy amount of people.

Since our hotel was on the outskirts of the city, we took a bus into the city centre that went through some Dublin/Balymun neighborhoods.



We started out near the city centre headed across the river and back towards Christ Church Cathedral. Unfortunately for me, we weren't too far from the river, when someone lifted my wallet. Since I don't actually carry cash, my wallet is pretty disappointing... unless they like a Kroger, Petsmart, and library cards :) The most disappointing loss was my MARTA Breeze card. So it was off to the nearest Garda station (police) to file a report. The nearest Garda station was about 10 blocks away and once we found it and filed a report we were in a part of the city that we hadn't intended to visit. Near Stephen's Green.

We strolled through the park.







We took a stroll along the river walk and made our way back to Christ Church Cathedral (still didn't go in) and found Dublin Castle.







After all this, we walked back to the city centre, had a couple of really good hamburgers, and had to walk again to our bus stop. It was quite a bit of walking, but worth it when we arrived back at our hotel and canceled all the credit cards in my wallet.

Eeeeee
