Hello everyone!!!
ok so at my last blog, we were still at Cork. Our second day in Cork, we went to visit the Blarney Castle. The Castle was very fun to climb and the view from the top was quite nice but the best part was kissing the blarney stone (Frank didn't kiss the stone). Then we walked around the sight taking pictures stones, water fall, a dolmen, a witch's kitchen...very intesresting!!!!!
Then back in cork, we walk around the city centre and ATE MCDONALDS!! woooohhhhooo
Next morning, we flew to Belfast at 7am! But our room was only ready at 13:30pm, so we did the black taxi tour! It was really intesresting! The taxi driver drove us around for 2 hours around the city explaining the violent history between the catholics and protestants. To this day, they still have giant gates toped with barbed wire that they close down, seperating the two communities each night in order to prevent night time assaults.
Next day, we visited the Bushmills distillery, the Giant Causaways and it was simply breathtaking!!!! We spent 2 hours walking arounf the causaways. You will understand when you see the pictures.
Then I left for Sunny bridlington in York , where i spent 2 days. When i arrived, Matty brought to York town to visit the York Minster. We walked 275 steeeep steps to get at the top of the tower. We were out of breath:P Around the city there is still a gate of stone that surrounds it, so we walked on the wall.
In the evening, I went to my first cricket game ever! Then we headed out to the city center, where all drinks were a £ each...yes that's right 2 dollars for any drinks!!!! It was great!!!
Next day, we went to Whitby! We visited the white abbey, Captain Cook (he discovered New Zealand), the bone whale's and eat the best fish and ships at Mag Pie Cafe!!! The weather was fantastic!! At night, we went to have some delicious indian and then of course headed out to drink (the drink were only 2£)!!!!!
Saturday morning, I headed to London and met with Andy, Simon and Frank!!!! So happpy!!! Chris, one of their roommates, prepared lunch for us then we went to pub crawl! It was awsome!! We did 9 pubs...started drinking from 5pm till 1am!!! And I did not get sick!!!!
Sunday, we basically didnt't do anything but drinking beergardens and watched the DARK NIGHT!!!!
Today, Frank and I went to see the Salvador Dali exhibition (very special and bizzare paintings and sculptures), the Buckimgham Palace ( so pretty, and we got to see the Soldiers march), the bristish museum (which was cool because it was free) then went shopping on oxford street....it was blooody boiling!!!!!!!!!
so that was it!

Holy crap!! I'm in AFRICA and I'm still the first to post on this blog! 2 points for me!!!
Ummm, if you were climbing that many stairs with Matty, why didn't he give you a piggy back ride? It's what any proper English gentleman from Bridlington would do. He should take lessons from Callum!!!
By the way, I spoke to your parents on MSN the other day. They were worried about you. It was cute... the said "I hope she's not drunk". I didn't know what to say, because I assumed you were. I appears I was probably right!!
Keep having fun!!!
