The last few days have been great.. Let's see shall we run down the checklist of my events in Ireland??


Welcome to the Check list of events completed in Ireland in the last few days with a brief desciption.



Seen irish man completly freak out at tourist info center.. this involved counter kicking and alot of spit. CHECK

This happened a few days ago.. We honestly couldn't understand any word except shit and something to do with bus. It was very angry and the guards were there within minutes.


Visiting interest museums including many stuffed dead animals and million dollar paintings..... CHECK

This one building was outstanding it had 4 floors wall to wall of stuffed animals. The main floor was all of the animals in the irish sea and on the island of ireland. The other floors contained everything from ALL over the world. a little creepy... alot interesting.


Getting in trouble for taking pictures of stuff animals... CHECK

Oops... ha ha. What sign?


Seeing beautiful park CHECK

Uhm yup kinda self explained.


Watching world champion busking festival CHECK

Oh this was cool there was a guy that never even spoke not a single word, but through all kinds of gestures and tricks he had the audience doubled over. A couple who did an amazing acrobatic routine.


Walking through see of crazed gaelic football fans CHECK

ok I had never even heard of this before. It was not even Dublins team playing and it was a sea of green, red, orange and yellow.


Watching bloodied crazed gaelic football fan with father who yeilds a knive and says "I'm going to kill him" CHECK

Yup very freaky.


Drinking alot CHECK CHECK CHECK

Hey they say if in Rome... well.. the less known is when in Dublin...


Having umbrella thrown out because it has a Union Jack on it CHECK

I kid you not. The topic came up last night on the way home from the pub and I pulled it out to prove I really had one and it was pulled from my grap and tossed into the nearest grabage bin.


Seeing lots of really cool statues CHECK

Everywhere.. we need more of these things back home.


Hmmm Lessee what else??


Oh and trying to learn to spin poi with my feet CHECK

Not yet mastered but give me a few weeks.


And THAT is my trip so far. Tomorrow we'll head back down and watch more of the street preformers and the next day who knows but I'll be flying back to Manchester on Tuesday for some nice sober RnR and let the job hunting begin.
