Roller Coaster of a Day

Well I'm finally in Dublin after a very eventful trip over I will remember the rest of my life. Somehow I wound up sitting next to a really cool, beautiful girl named Lauren on the plane over and we really hit it off which made the plane ride much more fun, but also is actually making me want to stay in Dublin for more than just a day. However, Dublin certainly has been interesting...When we got off the plane and walked down the stairs, we were met with 45 degree weather, intense rain, and wind that knocked Lauren over so that she had to hang on to me just to get in the terminal. When Lauren and I finally parted ways vowing to attempt to meet up again tonight, I made my way onto a bus into the Dublin city center which basically looks like a cold, run down, flatter version of New Zealand where I visited lasdt year, but full of very kind people. I got lost and wandered my way aimlessly until I was helped by such people. Now I'm at my very shady hostel where I am glad I'm staying only one night. I'll try to post later when I've actually seen more of the city.
