7. Trips

Our Edinburgh half marathon was amazing!!! And here is my way to share out trip...

We started our trip spending a few days in London. Going to London is quite special for me, and this time was very special too. I saw my cousin Lucia and her boyfriend Alejandro; we spent pretty much all day together.

Katy, Gaby and I were kind of tired because of the jet lag, but anyways London is always London, and I don't go there very often... The walk through St. James Park was worthy.

We visited Stonehenge, Bath and the Hamptons...it was really nice

I had lunch with my friend and teacher Gareth in a cute restaurant in Noting Hill

Pictures of all of us coming soon

If you happen to be around Soho in London don't miss dinner at:

Our next stop was Dublin, where the trip really started for Katy :) we spent 3 days in Dublin, visited the Cliff of Moher, and we did and amazing hiking tour around Wicklow.


Check this out. I believe it is one of the best tours ever. Our guide Michael was really good. His passion about his land, and his Irish roots made this journey fantastic.

I have to mention that Michael was kind enough to take us and stopped for a while at the P.S. I love
you bridge. (Pictures coming) He also repeated for us some of the lines of the movie. Funny!!!!

We enjoyed the city, we walked a lot, we spent every night visiting Pubs, specially around Temple
Bar.... yes, we know is a really touristic place, but it was good listening the local singing, we tested the Guinness.

The time to Edinburgh came, and it was very cool, and COLD!!!!!!!

It was Friday, two days before the race and the carbo-load started at IL CASTELLO, and from that day we never eat in any other place.
