Busy day! I went to the zo after breakfast. Walked up to the closest Luas stop and took the tram to Heuston Station (big train/bus station in Dublin). Walked around the zoo for a while. They had some nifty animals that I hadn't seen before, but I wish the their pens were bigger and nicer. Got a big lost walking back to the Heuston Station but made it there in the end. After I got off I wandered around the Temple Bar area. Got another mug with an Irish blessing on it, a scarf (3 euro!), a worry doll (just cuz, had them when I was little and they are really cute), a travel alarm clock, an Irish flag for my dorm room next year, and a merino wool toque. Had dinner at a pub around the corner from my hostel: a steak sandwich and chips. So good! After that I dropped my things off at my room and hailed a cab to take me to the theatre (totally could've walked, but my fee were killing me!). Did walk home though. The pantomine was really cute and if there is one near you, and you have kids, I really recommend going. There is something for everyone so even adults are entertained (eg jokes that kids don't get, etc.). Going on a tour of Cliffs of Moher and a couple other places tomorrow; my Blarney Castle tour was cancelled so they offered me this one instead :( It will be fun, but I really wanted to kiss the Blarney Stone :(
