Cheers Dublin !

I’ve been in three different countries today, and it’s only 3pm. We had to wake up at 5:30 to catch our bus to the airport. From there we flew to London, and then onto Dublin where we are right now. We promptly had our first pint of Guiness and now are trying to decide how to best spend our next 2 and a half days here. Once again, the weather is not cooperating with us, as a mixture of snow and rain continues to meet us everywhere we travel. The place we are staying at, is called the Avalon house, and is packed with many people our age, so hopefully we’ll have the opportunity to get to know some of them. We are contemplating the idea of taking a day trip outside of Dublin into the unknown, but we have to make sure we are confidant in the trains and that we will be able to find a place to stay. Jake says that sleeping in a barn is out of the question. Hopefully, we’ll have some interesting stories to share with everyone come tomorrow. Until then…

    I had a few pints of guiness last night at O’Gradys…thats kinda the same. I hope that you will have many more before you leave cuz it will never taste the same in ‘Sconsin.

    Have you seen any fights yet at the bars?

    Make sure to start each day with an invigorating Irish Coffee (one scoop Folgers in large tumbler of Jameson – Folger’s is optional). I don’t know if I’m more jealous of the stache or the trip so far. Wait – it’s gotta be the opportunity to be around Jake 24/7. Tell him I want an import copy of Deep Throat, because I lost mine.

    I just hope that the plague is over and you have enough potatos to eat.

    Man, I’m upset I don’t have anything witty to say… Anyway, what my plan would be if I went over there is to go to a pub, during a soccer match and try to start a fight between some soccer hooligans. Then you and Jake can just sit back, drink your Guiness and watch a real Irish Soccer Hooligan fight.
    Jake might get screwed cause he looks American, but you’ve got the red hair going for ya, just pretend to have an accent and you’ll be safe!

    I don’t appreciate somebody posing falsely as the Pokemon. I think it must have been a jealous Digimon. I hope you starve.

    Did anyone spot you as being the real lenny kravitz yet. Or is that cover as an American tourist working?
