Haha... what else can go wrong...

so.. your probably wondering what the title is all about but i will get to that in a minute.
I promised photos of the London eye and believe me they are coming :) maybe today maybe not.. It was amazing.. I was shitting my self it was soooooooooooooooo oooooooo oooo high.. but i did it and it was amazing. Than yesterday we went to book our theatre tickets and ended up booking tickets to the chorus line.. than we went to go see the wax museum... haha if you have ever waited in line than you still have no idea what it was like. We saw a sign saying 2 hours from here, and we're like 'no way the line doesnt look that long', but once we waited in the shivering cold we eventually got to the building to find the line snaked around and around, up some stairs and around some more to eventually get to the desk to get inside.. Well i must it was well worth the wait if i must say... it was insanely good :D (photos down below)
Than we made our way home for vegemite toast for dinner :D much to the jealousy of some other Aussies that we bumped into and to the thanks of Camilles mum :D After dinner we went to watch a chorus line!! It was not at all what i was expecting but VERY worth watching, if you don't mind filtering out the language. Than on our way back to the hostel i saw my baby... my Sax that i instantly fell in love with and if i could i would have bought it there and than... (pic below) <3

So the title... well:
let me tell you the list of things that went wrong whilst on our way to Dublin..
1. It all started with the lift, we needed to go down one floor with our luggage, well thats not such an easy task for the lift becuase we got in, it took us all the way to the top than down to ground (where we started) than down to the basement where we wanted to go.
2. We lost our key card to be able to get our luggage back after breakfast, haha.. the hostel still doesn't know, we managed to find someone with a card to let us in haha...
3. On the way to the airport we had to change trains, twice, up and down stairs, on the same station, twice, up the stairs and down the stairs... well we got our work out thats for sure.
4. when we got to the airport and needed to check out of the train station, we couldnt, it turns out we didn't have the right ticket and needed to pay a fine, but because we were nice and didnt know they let us off with only one of us having to pay a fine..
5. when we got to check in i had to pay excess baggage because my luggage was too heavy. That was all well and good till we found out we were late for our check in time and i couldn't pay because the machine wouldn't let me, so i had to run to the kiosk and pay and run back and check my luggage in and run to security...
6. to find that Camille has a metal book mark in her Bible so we got stopped to search the bag, couldn't find the 'weapon' so the bag got emptied and searched till they found it. Than we had to run to the gate to find we weren't even that late haha..
7. When we got to Dublin (finally) we were looking at getting a Dublin pass, and found out they had a special on so we thought we would go get it, so after getting some coins to get internet we went to pay for a Dublin pass and it wouldn't work. It wouldn't let us pay.
8. So we went back to the agent that told us about the pass and i hear my name over the intercom "Can Jemma Hart please report to the costumer information desk" so i ran there and turns out i left my whole wallet there, passport and all (woops!!!) but i was lucky enough that they found it and turned it in..

And than we made it in to Dublin, safely :) Of the few hours of being in Dublin i Love it!! the people are more friendly and the climate is better :)
