Dublin Break. Day Three {Final Day}

Hey Jelly Beans.

Today was my final day here in Dublin. I'm Currently sat outside a cute little café having a coffee after visiting The Science Gallery.

 
This attraction is well worth the visit. It's free, interesting and if you love anything Science related then you will love this place. I spent a long while looking around the exhibit's which were truly fascinating. I noticed that there were many families in there with younger children, so I suggest it would be a good place to visit during the holidays with children.
 
Once I had finished I took a stroll along the streets and pottered around all the little shops before taking a well earned break here.
 
Like I said today has been my last day here in Dublin. Cases packed and ready to head home tomorrow and I will miss it here.
 
Overall Experience.
 
I have had such a blast here seeing some truly amazing things. The Castle was amazing and worth the trip but the thing that stood out most for me was the Famine Sculptures. I can not express how moving and sad but at the same time fantastic they really are. They are an experience I will take home with me.
 
Ashling Hotel
 
Beautiful room. Located close to the bus stops and tram stations. Reception and all staff very helpful. Check in was easy. They have a luggage scale that is useful when packing bags for return flights (which I seriously needed!). Wifi was great (small blip to begin with forgotten about). Highly recommend staying here to family and friends. I would stay here again.
 
Well friends, I'm going to finish off my coffee now and head back to the hotel to finish off packing. Thank you for staying with my on my second adventure. Look forward to speaking to you again soon.

Berlin Day 2

Hello Jelly Beans, So todays post is going to be short and sweet, simply because I visited one place and then had to come home due to feeling a little poorly. So first thing was breakfast. Being summoned to the breakfast room this sight greeted me. Freshly squeezed juices, different teas and coffee. Doughnuts, croissants, toast, muffins both sweet and savoury, a huge selection of cereal and of course a fried breakfast. I went for some simple toast and a cuppa tea. Before heading out in the taxi to my next location to explore.   So I hear you all shout "where did you go today"? Well my dear friends, I shall tell you. Today I took a trip to the iconic landmark that is. The Berlin Wall. Well what can I tell you about this wall. The Berlin Wall was a barrier constructed by the German Democratic Republic starting on 13 August 1961, that completely cut off West Berlin from surrounding East Germany and from East Berlin. The barrier included guard towers placed along large ...

Ford Street Car 1.6 Luxury - Cute & Affordable

Good Evening Everyone. Today I thought that I would start something slightly different as a running series. Car/vehicle reviews. Now I absolutely love my cars and vehicles so thought I would kick off this series with my very own love....The Ford Street Ka!! As much a fashion accessory as a mode of transport, the Street Ka is cute enough to have character, cheap enough to be bought by a single girl about town and sensible enough to serve a useful purpose while it looks good. The solid underpinnings of the car have been stiffened and tweaked to release a wee bit more performance, but this is not a vehicle with any serious sporting pretensions. It's eminently chuckable, but the limitations of the 1.6-litre engine prevent even clog-footed drivers getting themselves into trouble. Around town it's at its best, darting in and out of traffic, nipping into tight parking spaces and performing neat little U-turns. On the motorway it gets a bit too talkative but is f...
