We Made it to Europe

Our flights, although we were separated, turned out to be shorter than we thought. We arrived at 10:30 a.m. to Dublin, Ireland. We took a bus to the city center where our hotel was (Harding hotel). After lunch and a quick nap we decided to go walking and see the sights. Some of our pictures show the old buildings and a church that was right across the street from our hotel. Andrew would have liked to tour the Guinness distilleries, but we were unable to find it. The next morning we woke at 4:15 a.m. and flew out at 7:15. Sherrie, the chef of Magic Days, picked us up from the Malta airport at noon. We lost another hour making the time difference 7 hours ahead of Central time. The boat is a little bit smaller than we are used to and the swell from the ocean has created quite a rock to the boat (good for sleeping, not on the head and stomach). Bethany got a little sea sick but a few hours later she feels a lot better. Although we haven't left the dock yet, Malta seems like a very historic country and still has many dis-trot buildings from World War Two. We took some pictures from the Grand Harbor Marina, at which we are staying at. We hope to get some sight seeing in tomorrow. Even though the country has its own language for the most part everyone speaks English. That's it for now!
