I woke up this morning with plenty of time to get to the church building, hoping someone would be there this time, and made it on time. Well... no one was there. Again. I gave up ringing the bell and just continued on to the bus station to catch the shuttle to the airport. I paid for the bus and the time stamp said 8:32... but it's 9:32? Nope. It's 8:32am. Europe turns the clocks back a week before Americans do. Lesson learned! No wonder people weren't at the church building... I know some early birds, but I don't know anyone that goes to church an hour early.
Due to this mishap, I had an extra hour of waiting for my flight to London. On the flight, a little girl behind me accidentally bit her finger. As the tears welled up and she started crying, the stewardess (in a thick, British accent) said, "Aww she bit her finger!" It took all I had to not burst out with, "Ouch Charlie! That hurt! That really, really hurt!"
London layover, 4.5 hours... fortunately, this gave me time to scope out where the best places to sleep are, since I'll be spending the night here next week!
By the time I got to Dublin, waited for my free airport transfer (since I booked a tour with the company, they include the airport transfer), and got to my hostel, I was pooped. There were too many people connected to WiFi, causing it to slow down and continuously crash. I finally was able to just send a short message to my mom after trying for what seemed like forever. At this point, I'm just ready for BED folks... good night!!
