Guinness Factory.

That next morning we all woke up just in time to miss the free breakfast. Good thing we had an abundant amount of bread and peanut butter that we bought the night before. We went to the Center of Dublin where they have lots of shops and it's basically where everyone is at during the day. We went to this place called Carol's and that is where I bought my Claudgha (spelling) ring. Prior to this, for about the last 6 years, I had been upset because my Claudgha ring that I got for my Confirmation broke my freshman year of high school :( According to my mother, she had been "fixing" it all this time. However, I am glad the process of getting it "fixed", or just sitting in her room on her dresser, was taking so long because a Claudgha ring from Ireland is so much better than a Claudgha ring from Irish Imports just because it's IRELAND. We went to this little cafe called The Front because we needed a little break from walking in that rain. For only 6 euros each we got tomato basil soup, coffee, and a honey mustard chicken sandwich. It was delicious and even better than it would have tasted any other time because I had missed having taste and flavor in my meals and not having it be so bland like the meals are in Spain. From there we took a long journey to Guinness Factory in the wind and rain and we didn't feel like wasting money on a taxi. I don't think the rain ever took a break while we were there. Like seriously HOW do you rain that much? Guess that's why it's so green :) Guinness Factory was great. And the best part, everyone kept telling me that when you're in Ireland you have to have at least one pint of Guinness, well we all got free pints of Guinness at the end of the tour and I didn't have to waste any of my money on a beer that takes me an hour to drink that I can't enjoy. Two for one deal! The tour was a self tour and it had seven levels. They showed you each ingredient and all the processes of how it was made. I really don't remember detail for detail about that, but I do remember the four main ingredients that Arthur Guinness, inventor of the world's worst beer, combined together. They were barley, water, hops, and wheat. He also was married in a church with a bar in it called The Church. How classy.
