Just the type of weekend I needed! With more fiestas in Spain, we had Monday and Tuesday off from classes so I decided to take a trip to Dublin to visit Geraldine, Dave and their girls. I truly enjoyed not having to worry about metros or hostels and a language barrier for a full three days! Saturday was a perfect fall day and we spent it at Malahide Castle and the Portmarnock Beach. Malahide Castle includes a large playground where I spent the majority of the type hoisting the girls up to the slide. We then ventured to the front go the castle where there were two threes that just started losing their leaves. In Spain I haven't seen many beautiful red, yellow, and orange leaves so I took it in as the girls skipped through them!

Portmarnock beach was a little chilly, but the waves were a sight to see! The girls enjoyed getting as close to the water as possible and then running away quickly as it started to come back up!

Beth, Megan, and Amy are all adorable and full of energy. I really enjoyed spending time with them and after hearing the fights over who got to sit next to me at the dinner table, I think they enjoyed my company as well! Sunday was spent at Dave's nephew's first birthday party! I definitely miss family events like these, so I'm glad I got to experience something similar across the ocean. I was definitely sad to go on Monday and wished my visit could have lasted a few more days, but I know I will be back there soon!
Muchos Besos!
