Cousin time

IRELAND | Thursday, 19 September 2013 | Views [272]

So finally after months of waiting, my cousin Sam arrived in Europe to travel with me!

 
Our first week was spent in chilly London and Dublin. London was spent doing the touristy sights, introducing Sam to pints, a grim reaper tour in the rain and a wet night out in Shoreditch (where my issues with left and right got us lost).
 
Our mix ups didn't end there! We both got to go to our first English football match - Fulham v. West Brom. It wasn't until 30minutes and a goal in that we realised we were cheering for the wrong team! We thought for sure there was a typo on the big screen! Oh well, the score ended up 1-1 so we got to cheer for both goals!
 
Our time in Dublin was flipping cold! Not sure how I'm going to handle a European winter! Regardless, we had a fantastic time wandering the streets and doing our own pub crawl. I also had my first and only pint of guinness in the famous Temple Bar pub! Not awful... The price hurt more than the beer!
 
After all that cold weather that our poor Australian selves can't handle we are really looking forward to hot weather the rest of the way!
