So punk what you going to do,,,????

With nothing going on in Carlow, Arturs and I decided to go to Dublin for the night too see what night life we could find. With waving off the true fact that he is only 17, but so close now by days, we decided to try our luck. With no problems we were able to walk right past security. OK, so you have a older friend who could be a brother walking in with, it is no longer a big deal. Heck, if I was working the door I would think nothing of it.

When we first got to Dublin and after check in two of us walked down to the supermarket for beer and food. We ate at the hostel and watched a bit of TV while getting the home drink on. Then off into the city. The first thing we both noticed was the long line at the ATM; at the end of the night they were all empty. I had to get a pic of that, then we noticed that everyone was dressed up a bit more than the two of us.. OH yes, valentines day weekend. Oh well.

We had a stroll in the Temple

wwhhhooo me........

Would you just look at this nut job...Man I got to find a better bunch of people, ones that are not loosing it. The fun of train rides, no wonder parents go mad.

Bar area, watching out for the next staggering person to come our way. The area was full of people, madly in love with each other, and pissed drunk. We managed to make it to the metal bar in time for 2 beers and the end of the live session. Then Hell took over with the house DJ....It was a time warp, from the time of mullets and high pitched hair metal. I was done for the night. Next day came back to Carlow and I did laundry.

So what do you think? Fun weekend? Nothing like the life I had in Munich.....

The Salvation Army

Just thought it was a neat looking. Not everyday that you see this. Oh wait yes, across the street from the Dekalb house. But still the best place to shop to furnish a house.
