After seeing the first elephant in the street without a seller I decided to ask around if there was anyone who had seen the owner of the seller. It was all in vain till I came across a man who told me that there was another elephant in a shop. This made me so mad that I decided to run to the shop where the other elephant was. I could not believe that the owner had kept the elephant in such conditions.
Elephant Number two
Seeing the elephant from the window almost made me cry cause I could not believe how badly the owner had treated the elephant. All I found was the website of the seller. www.givinglots.co.uk
I went to the website and found out that the elephants were being sold in an auction for as high as 100,000 pounds.Which i thought was too much for a plastic or what ever ‘material they were made from.
I was surfing the Internet and I came across this website (www.givinglots.co.uk) which was advertising that they where elephants for sale in the centre of London. I felt mercy for the elephants so I decided to go and buy them. Being empathetic made me think about how scared the elephants would be in a city as big as London. What were they eating and in what conditions where they living in. Also thinking if their master was giving them enough food and exercises? This is what I found.
Elephant number one
Poor elephant it was left on the corner all alone and with no water to drink. The only good thing was that it was put in the shade away from the summer sun.
In Dublin city centre there is the most frequented tourist place called temple bar.Which is full of pubs,clubs, restaurants and hotels.It is a great place to go out that is if you are a tourist and have your finances in order.On the other hand if you have a limited finance budget. It will be hard for you to enjoy a pint of Guinness.A pint of Guinness in temple bar costs 6 euro which if you check on the website (www.xe.com) by today’s rates is 5 pounds and a couple of pennies . Or if you use dollars it is 7.76 dollars by today rates on www.xe.com. So if you want to enjoy a pint of Guinness in Dublin stay away from Temple bar if you are on a budget. It is slightly cheaper outside temple bar.A pint of Guinness would cost you from 4.50 to 6 euro.
