Driving
This is a top pick! ... a look around an old castle and found a dead pidgeon. I then spent the entire weekend convincing Adrian that he had to write me a limerick, as we had been to Limerick. At the very end he came up with something that involved my eyes being as big as ...
Wandering in Ireland
This is a top pick! Limerick, a.k.a Stab City! Another driving trip in Ireland. My car in the UK is a Peugeot 206 2L GTI, my hire car this week was also a 206, but a 1.6L slug...but then Irish roads don't really lend themselves to acceleration! There is not a lot ...
Christmas and, what is that word? Relaxation?
... ; No shize. In her defense, I might have intimidated her with my Bulgarian coat (It was cold outside!). And in Ireland's defense, she had an accent from some other country, so I still have yet to experience bad Irish service. Someone ...
Bones and Things
... until about 1:30 and would only have about 3 hours to wander around before we would have to catch the last bus back to Limerick. I'm telling you, public transportation is pretty shabby, but still not as bad as LA! We huffed for a while. Aussie ...
Halloween, Porque Ben?
... to make a day of it. I showed my housemates King's Island, since my sense of adventure sent me through all of Limerick's finer corners, even though the general view is that Limerick is a shabby, boring city. We ran around in circles a bit, ...
Irish folklore essay on the Merry Wake
... merry wake tradition served substantially as a means of resistance for the peasant class to the control of the church in Ireland, although a discussion of other possible meanings has been included. Works Cited Bourke, A. (1993) 'More in anger than ...
A little of the daily grind

Limerick and a free hotel room
... phase us at all. The boys came up for a drink and we ended up sitting around chatting till about 1.30am, before eventually heading to Limerick town. We were so late there wasn't many options of where to go. We went into a bar with a few different levels ...
The Observant Episode
... and the Irish so small? Stay tuned. For the last of today's observations, I shall discuss the rain. It rains in Limerick every day, but the clouds move so quickly! When LA rains, it pours, and pours, for 2 weeks straight, then is ...
Presentations Galore

Peaceful Goodbyes
... I am! Having the time of my life. My two study abroad housemates, Oregon and Australia, packed up their bags, leaving Limerick for good. Oregon had to catch a bus at 4am, so he was frantically packing all day. Australia was first ...
Nutritional Disgrace, Enrollment Joys

And We're Off!

LIMERICK (Dingle Peninsula)
We flew into Shannon on Sunday and drove to Limerick in Ireland. We hired a FIAT car to explore Ireland via driving. We got there very late and could not find anywhere to eat. We ended up driving like half an hour to get midnight Macca's (or McDonalds if ...

Week 1 of classes, for real this time
... to the weekend. We're planning on going to a concert at Dolan's Pub, one of the more popular and traditional pubs around Limerick, on Saturday. Then, on Sunday, we'll go rock climbing on the coast of the Burren with the Outdoor Pursuits Club. Very ...
