Day 5: The Day After

Now that the wedding was over so was the rushing and the anticipation. As usual I was up pretty early. I headed downstairs to have breakfast but I would have been the only one there period I waited about 45 minutes and said this is crazy and went in and had breakfast period barely finally came down but she said by herself which was ok .
As I was getting ready to leave people started to come down. Dan and Amy came down and Amy wanted to go back to the city with me. I was glad to have the company. so as soon as she was finished away we went.
My plan was to stop at Glendalough. My GPS as usual took us all over the place . We ended up on somebody's lawn however there was a Castle there . After dealing with the barking dogs we got back in the car and finally found Glendalough. It was really beautiful .
Glendalough is where St Kevin found it is church and monastery in around the 600. There was also around Tower there. Round Towers were for the monks to hide from Invaders so that they would be protected. I'm not sure they were successful but they're beautiful to look at.
After a Time in the Monastery we headed back to Dublin airport and return the car. This was done with very little effort period Amy and I took the bus back to Dublin she getting off the Docklands and I went on to Temple Bar .
That night Frank Ruane from Manchester arrived with his sons Steven and Michael. They made into town around 8:30 and it was great to see them. We head down to a bar called Murray's and had a little dinner and listen to the music and saw some good Irish dancing .
Frank is really slowing down. He look tired and he was ready to go home. We put Frank in a cab and sent him back to his hotel and we walk down towards Temple Bar. By this time it was midnight and it was time for me to go to bed and I knew those two wanted to get into some heavy party in which I understand they did. I guess they didn't roll in until around 4 in the morning. I was so glad I went to bed.
I'm starting to catch up I only have 3 more days to do so that I will be up to date period thank you all for your patience .
