Our trip to Adare in Jan Hey Michael!
Thank you so much for your blog about Adare. My husband and some friends are staying at the Adare Manor Villas in a few weeks and really appreciate the insight you gave us. Looks like Adare is the place to be, we're psyched to go!
Thanks again.

Haha, it's me again. It's me Jessica again, I just wanted to not that by the look of your blogs, it seems that you have a pretty exciting life! But I'm gonna stop looking at them now because I probably look like a stalker! Hahaaa.
Looks like... You had a wonderful day in Switzerland. It is very beautiful there. I googled "self timed photo" and the link to this site came up. I'm in a photography class in my High School, which is why I googled that. You take great pictures, keep it up. I'm only 15 by the way. (:
Keep 'em coming! Hi Micheal,
Cricky says hi!
Have been following your blog since you started. GREAT job! Laughed out loud about your sausage and potatoes meal. Don't make fun of your father and the horseradish (laughed at that one, too). Keep writing!
Looking for the Italian Easter Bunny? Easter in Italy is very different than in the USA. In the U.S. ,Easter is very commercialized, ie. " the Easter Bunny". At the dinner table talking to Roberto about Easter in the USA, I mentioned the Easter bunny to him. He had know idea what I was talking about because there isn't a floppy eared bunny delivering gifts. It was very difficulty to convey the idea of our Easter Bunny to him, so the next best thing in translation was rabbit. When I mentioned rabbit , Roberto's eyes lit up and I swear he started to salivate, and said in Italian " oh you eat the rabbit on Easter"! Half startled and the other half laughing I exclaimed, "no, no, we don't eat the Easter Bunny at Easter"! You had to be there, talk about "Lost In Translation"! P.S. Italians do love their rabbit, roasted, fried, baked, and is eatened much more frequent than in the USA.
Very, very, jealous! Cousin of mine! I miss you! When are you coming back? Your trip looks absolutely unbelievable, but yo' family and frenz in New Haven miss you lots! We just got rid of the empty Everclear bottle (we finished it!) that you liberated from Hot Tomatoes for us.
I'm just LOVING the posts, can't wait for your next one!
Looks like you're having a hell of a time If I wasn't doing well myself I would be very jealous of your traveling. Looks like you're doing great keep it up man. Good luck in school ans traveling. When are you getting back home? And are you gonna be at GT this summer? Phi Alpha

NICE!! Dude........ if that aint the best day trip I have ever seen in my life, I don't know what is. Those are some incredible pictures, thanks for sharing them, the blog is awsome. When you have gone into a restaurant has anyone asked yet: uwantslawondat?? It almost looks German.
Hello from Brookfield Hi Michael, Your dad taught me how to blog you as I'm interested in your travels. Some day I will get to Scotland and Ireland. My trips have been all on Europe's mainland. Like you, I have flown into Malpensa Airport, but left Milan for the countryside because I found the city so crowded and rather dirty. I loved Rome; getting around the city was hard. They are nuts behind the wheel! Get to see as much as you can. I know you have to study sometime. I wish you well.
for the countryside. I didn't care much for Milan. I found it crowded and rather dirty
Your life is amazing How do you do it? You lead an amazing life! Crazy, I'm so jealous! Well done! Who knew traveling alone in Ireland coudl be so much fun!?!
Coffee! "It was unbelievable good, but hopefully it doesn't lead to a coffee or 'caffè' addiction!"
Ha! But I'm glad you liked it. Coffee is amazing. *takes a sip from her Venti cup* But I wouldn't worry. You won't get addicted to it unless you make a conscious effort to do so. You'd have to drink it every day for weeks.
"maybe it's because I was watching Fox News."
...duh.
Holy crap! A beach house! That thing is going to be massively awesome. Keep those pictures coming!
Wow! A balcony! Your room is so sweet. I hope you really like yellow.
As for the metro incident with the girl, I totally saw that coming. It's happened to me before. You try to be the charming foreigner, and then it turns out they speak your language.
I hope you're having loads of fun!
I am studying at Bocconi University (UniversitĂ Commerciale Luigi Bocconi) in Milan, Italy for the Spring 2009 semester. I arrived in Milan on January 31st and I will be here until the end of June.
