Countdown is on!!!

So I officially only have 2 weeks left in Ireland and I'm not gonna be in Ireland the whole time! He he he 

This week I worked quite a bit... I had to work Saturday night and early Sunday morning :/.  But I'm not complaining cause I'm gonna get a few days off woo

So after I went to the meeting I went into Dublin and went to the Guinness factory...it's the last major Ireland   attraction that I feel I needed todo...even though I don't like beer lol

The factory it's self is massive!! Takes up a huge area in the downtown Dublin area.  Come to find out the owner guy signed a contract for 9000 years and only has to pay £48 a month for the prime spot....now that's a deal!  So the tour it's self is a self guided tour that is in this pint shaped building that has seven floors... The first was all about how you make the beer.....
 You need lots of fresh water! 
 And places to keep it! 




....and then there was a floor with the history of the beer....and then a tasting room....

....and then about the advertisement aspect of the beer.....
 The zoo keeper! 

....and then there was a Guinness academy that showed you the 6 steps of pouring a Guinness and then you got to pour your own pint and got an award for pouring the perfect pint! 





I drank like two sips and it definitely had a better taste being fresh and all but ughhh*gag* it's soo gross don't like beer and dark beer at that!! Lol

Tuesday was the boys actual birthday so they are officially one! I watched the kids In the morning ...so Jen could sleep... But then I had the rest of the day off.  Men's parents came up and they were having a little cake and thing for the boys so I got out of the house and went and saw Superman!! 

Wednesday Jen went to Belfast all day with her friend for some shopping and I had the kids all day..it went really good! 

Belgium this weekend...can't wait to see a friend!! :)
