On December 27th, 2011, I travelled to Dublin, Ireland for a few days.  The trip itself had some ups and downs, but the atmosphere of the city was like none other.  Temple Bar, The Ha'penny Bridge, Trinity College, and Christ Church Cathedral were just a few of the iconic sights I was able to explore.  I also took a day trip with a new friend from my hostel across the Irish countryside to the Cliffs of Moher.  Though the wind and rain were ruthless, the view was spectacular.
