Alrighty! Change O' Plans... so, lucky for me that I just can't leave Ireland, huh? Pictures to follow later. I stayed in Galway an extra night in hopes to kind of calm down and relax a bit. Since I wasn't meeting Kris until the following morning, it didn't matter too much if I arrived in the morning as well. I miss the first train (oops... fun night out!) so i caught the second train and Kris and I met at the Barnacles in Dublin where I stored my bag. We got some food, sat in a park, talked and I shared [View Full Entry]

Hey all... some good news... I didn't stay on schedule so I am not in London like you all think I am. I have a plane ticket there tonight and, obviously, will not be going (sorry Adam and please email me to let me know you are alright). I was supposed to go to Paris right after that, but will be rethinking my travel plans... maybe I'll just go hibernate on the Aran Islands again... But, I'm in Dublin and not leaving Ireland at the moment, but probably won't stay in Dublin... Thanks for listening... (ma... please call grandmom and tell [View Full Entry]

Wow... well i'm leaving Gallway today and it has been quite the 3 days here... I can't even believe this place. It has a pedestrian walkway that you can just shop the shit out of... the clothing here is so unique... it's really a beautiful place, but not much to see. The first night I was here we we out & Jake won Oxygen tickets and gave them to Ben. Woke up yesterday and walked all of Gallway and saw everything there was to see here... Kyle and I were hanging out quite a bit and then met up with Ben [View Full Entry]

Hey all... sorry for the lack of communication. I had such an amazing time on the Islands. It was unbelievable. Those clifs on Inishmore were breathtaking. Not sure if I told you about Paolo (From Venice, Italy)... he was so funny and shared a room with the 4 of us at Manistir House on Inishmore (see picture in previous blog). So, the night after the big hike we cooked dinner and ate the same as the night before (good veggies). After dinner, we all went out to the pub (Paolo too) and it was a great time. Sat outside at a [View Full Entry]

Ok, so it is Friday and I'm sorry I haven't been able to get to a computer. This one I am on is shitty so I can't put any pictures up. I will be able to in 2 days when I get to Gallway... Anywho... in Dooblin, we, Jonathan (Israel), Yuval (Israel) and Kyle (Canada) headed out to the most AMAZING pub in the world. It was so quaint and there were 6 people sitting around a bench playing traditional, and i mean traditional, Irish music. It was so amazing I almost cried! WOW... wait until you see the video. It [View Full Entry]

Alrighty! don't have time to plug the camera in, so you will have to imagine... met the 3 bikers last night again. We had a blast and hung out with a girl from Hunduras too. We had several Guiness (again). After hanging out with them all night decided that I would take their offer up and meet them at the bus stop at 12:15 this morning! So, I did it and we travelled to Tralee and then to Doolin today. We go to Doolin and we're slightly disappointed so we decided that we will head to the Aran Islands tomorrow, but [View Full Entry]

(pictures in previous blog) Wow... I'm completely blown away by this place. So, Petunia & Daniella and I walked into town and I stopped at the cafe to load some pictures up for you. That was the last time I wrote. I think I forgot to tell you about Mike & Joe who I met on the bus... well... maybe I did, but they were so nice (from NJ)... Anyway here's their picture. I met up with the 2 girls later and we went to a great pub with irish music. We got hit on by older men so we left [View Full Entry]

Morning everyone! Well... what a night. After I wrote you last I headed to the Guniness brewery only to find out that the internet was wrong and they closed earlier than I had anticipated... thus, the reason I am up early (to shower and head back) but it looked cool from the outside! So, after the 45 minute truck out there and back, I returned to eat at a restaurant suggested by Kris... The Bad Ass... I had the most amazing sun dried tomatoe thingy on bread and a great salad. So, for those of you who are worried about my [View Full Entry]
