Galway-Dublin (34 km cycling)
I went to the busstation Early in the morning. The weather was great, but I had to go back to Dublin so I wouldn't cycle a lot today. Getting my bike into the bus wasn't a problem. When I arrived in Dublin I found myself again in the middle of the city with its trafficchaos. After nearly 3 weeks cycling on the left a was used to that, but I mostly cycled trough desolate areas so I didn't have any experience with trafficlights on the left (I just saw a handfull of these the last weeks), and I was still looking on the right for trafficlights, so I cycled not just once trough a red one :-) But I survived it al. It wasn't hard to find the campsite, which was the most secured campsite I saw. I was a bit like a prison, but apart from that not to expensive with good, clean facilities.

Dublin (0km)
Today it did have a look at Dublin itself, I went to the natural museum, which was mainly a collection of stuffed animals from small birds to polar bears. If you're in Dublin you ofcourse have to see the Guinness-brewery,but I didn't like it, it was simply to commercial and to touristic. After that I went to the Jameson-distilery, which was a lot nicer.

Dublin - Dublin Airport (27 km)
I left the campsite early because I didn't want to mis my flight, and I was affraid that my tire wouldn't get damaged again. I arrived much to early at the airport, checked in (they even had a free bicyclebag for me), and flew home. Me and my bicycle arrived both without any damage at Schiphol.
