So I made it to Dublin in one piece. This keyboard is weird. Some of the buttons are out of place. The plane ride was a little rocky but fun for me. Thanks to Ambien I slept most of the plane ride. I sat next to someone from Ireland (what a coincidence) and I got a lot of interesting tips from her. I ended up not taking a cab from the airport but instead took a bus. It was cheaper. It would have helped for me to get off at the right stop. But I managed to get to my hotel and all that jazz.
It was too early for me to check in by the time I got to the hotel so I dropped off my luggage and did some walking. I got to Church at St. Francis Xavier which is more commonly known as Gardiner Parish (at least that is what I gathered). They had a bunch of little girls who were getting ready to start their First Communion Classes so they had a special celebration for that. After that I headed back to the Center of Town and walked around a bit just to figure out where everything was. Finally when it was 1400 I headed back to the hotel where I checked in and crashed for a few hours. I figured that it would be better than being tired the rest of the trip.
When I woke up I headed to the Temple Bar area to see what was up. I ended up going into a pub called Legends. I heard some Irish music so I walked in. It was pretty cool. I kinda felt like I was at Ballydoyle's at home only everyone had a Brogue and they were more into the Irish Music than back at home. I guess that is an obvious though.
Alrighty, talk to you all soon. Time to get some sleep.

Boy this is great! are you sure you went to church before the pub? Try to find a font color that's not washed out in the globe. By the way Pat McMahon says: Don't kiss the Blarney, 'cause the local youths get drunk and pee on it everynight!
ReplyDeleteThat is what I heard from someone else too...I am not planning on kissing it. I'll kiss in spirit. Plus, sometimes it is hard to shut me up anyway!
ReplyDeleteCHURCH before the pub? What about pub before the keyboard with "the buttons" that seem to be "out of place?" Hittin the bottle of what-ever a little hard, eh?
