We're back in Dublin now, which is good because I got
REALLY tired of seeing sheep and cows everywhere. Fully
half of Ireland's population lives in Dublin, and the
remainder of the country is comprised mostly of agrarian
business. So even though the country is beautiful, it gets
kind of repetitive after a while. As I said before, I'm a
city boy. I like a lot of people and a lot of things in an
area. However, the Guinness Draught stuff is good here
(way better than the Extra Stout).

Unfortunately, accessing the Internet from a hotel room
is quite expensive, so once again I'm just blabbing about
mundane events.

Good things about Ireland:
-the scenery (The Cliffs of Moher, Killarney National Park)
-the pubs (friendly, down-to-earth atmosphere with good
food and drink)
-the art (National Gallery, Municipal Museum of Modern Art,
Irish pottery and Gaelic designs)
-the accent (if you can decipher it)
-the architecture (castles, cathedrals, houses and
buildings)

My family and I are here until Saturday morning, and then
we fly over to London, where we'll rent a car and spend the
following four days in the western country and literally
living out of a suitcase. My psychotic parents have booked
a different hotel for each night, so the concept of setting
down is nonexistent. Anyways, until the next entry,
whenever that occurs.
