Tired, But having Fun

The flight was comfortable,and the time passed quickly. I didn't eat to much on the plane, we had had dinner in the airport. Got about an hour of sleep. When we got there we got our rental car, and then went to a stone age burial tomb that was a pretty large tourist spot. It was called Newgrange. Newgrange was cool, the people built the main building under a large hill, where they did religious ceremonies and kept their dead till the winter solstice. At the winter solstice, the sun would shine in across the floor of the cave under the hill. Later, we went to Elinor and Allen's house to hang out for a while, and then sleep. The next morning Phillip and I woke up at 10:30 and got dressed, only to take a two hour nap. After this, around 3:00 we went to the horse stable. After visiting the stables we took a walk along the beach in a small  town called New Castle. We got some tourist innformation and arranged hotel spots for thursday and wednesday. I also got a glass worry stone, and a shamrock keychain. To hear more about the horse stables and another part of  Newgrange, called Knowth, read Phillips blog.
