April 26th was our last full day in Dublin. Realizing this was our last day, we tried to take advantage of it. We started off the day by meeting at Belvedere College for a group photo with our jackets and ties. Then we immediately departed for the Guinness Storehouse at St. James’ Gate. We took the trolley there, on a ten minute ride.
Arriving at the Guinness factory we were amazed at how large it was, and how the Guinness name was plastered everywhere. The tour was long but enjoyable, and finished with a great view of the city from the top floor Sky Bar. From there we went to St. Steven’s Green where we ate lunch and started the Viking Splash Tour.
The Viking Splash gave us a very entertaining tour of the city from both land and sea. Driving down the streets were tried our best to scare the local “Celts” with our screams and roars.
After the tour we went back to Belvedere to meet back up with host brothers and prepare for our farewell reception. The reception was really nice and allowed everyone to thank the many people who put in the work to make the whole trip possible. It was a great way to end our trip.
