Dublin, finally!

We did have a little time to walk around Dublin after we got in. City center is very walkable. Here's some photos from the very long travel day and what little we saw of Dublin. EF had managed to reschedule most of what we missed.

I'm not adding captions because I barely remember what the guy said things were. We were all walking zombies at that point.

Wales!

Very early start this morning -- we had to be on the bus to leave at 6 am to get to the ferry early enough to catch the 8 am one. We were all sad  to say goodbye to the bus driver, Colm; he was hilarious, slightly hard to understand but amazing overall. The ferry ride was a three hour trip to Holyhead, Wales. We then met up with our new bus driver and headed to Beaumaris to see a Norman style castle and enjoy some fish and chips on the beach. Alex and the bus driver decided we had time to do a few extra things, so we went to the town with the longest name -- that I won't even try to spell -- as well as the mountains/Snowdownia national park. The kids kept commenting how much they liked Wales and how amazing it looks. Most of us may have had a good nap as we entered England, but it was much needed. After dinner, the kids worked out and relaxed. They're all excited to head to London tomorrow!

Stratford- Upon-Avon and London day 1

We've been lucky on the trip and not had horribly early mornings. We headed out to Shakespeare's birthplace of Stratford -upon-avon at 8:30 after breakfast. We went to his wife's cottage and then his birthplace. Today instead of dinner being included, it was lunch. We had a Moroccan lunch in our own private dining room. Then it was on to London! Dinner was on our own, so we went to the Piccadilly Circus area. It's basically like Times Square (not my favorite part of town but it definitely gives the kids a look at big city life). Then it was back to the hotel.
