... the little Ford Focus hatchback buggy through the exit, with the picketers wailing their arms all over. Had lunch, took a look at Ross Castle, and continued on to Limerick. <br>Heres the story of the day...who stays in HOTELS, not hostels, while they are backpacking? Yes, Im not kidding when I say we accidentally booked, online, a suite. Two separate bedrooms with double beds, huge bathroom and shower, TV room with couches, dining room, kitchen, walk ...

so i haven't updated in a while and i have about 6 entries that i need to post, but i've been super busy with midterms! i miss everyone and this weekend i will hopefully be posting pictures and entries of everything that i did while i was in the UK. i just wanted to let everyone know that i'm ok and just trying to power through all this school work.

... as to Canada, Argentina and Australia. 3 million left from the early 1800's to 1970. It is also the port from which the Titanic and the Lusitania sailed on theri last vogages. <br><br>We ended up in Kinsale, visited an amazing stone fort there (Charles Fort), had dinner and headed for "home". Our only real adventure was getting though Cork on our way home- we literally went in circles under the guidance of the GPS. And thank God we had it or we'd be there still!<br>

... a statement about the robbery. Sure and begorrah Officer Buckley was a most professional and gorgeous Irishman, with a twinkle in his eye, even as he was all business.<br><br>The manager of the resort and head of security also dropped in and were extrememly gratious- compensating us even further with dinner tonight in their 5 star restaurant, and an innkeepers compensation of ...

... pub is known to have Traditional Irish Music sessions every night so we were looking forward to that. The session was really cool and the environment of the pub was just really awesome. There were people of all ages and everyone was really enjoying the music. Then on Sunday I slept in a little bit and then went shopping with Hailey in Limerick. I only got a couple things and we just ...

... It was very moving and at the same time very sad. See alot of ruined Abbeys and Churches with amazingly old cementaries as we drive along. Apparrently these are the result of Henry VIII's dissolution of the monastries where many Churches were destroyed and never rebuilt. Amazing the number destroyed. Very sad. Next stop was the 'Cliffs of Moher' with O'Brien's tower. Very beautiful. Usually there are puffins lining the cliffs but there were none today ...

... history of the place and background to life in that period. Once a lord and lady of the manor had been chosen for the evening (it wasn't us) and introduced to the rest of the guests, we all descended from the great hall to the dinning hall. The food, wine and entertainment we all very good. As we were on a smaller table, with a couple of empty seats, we got a larger share of the food and alcohol than most of the rest of the guests. Gavin paid for his overconsumption the ...

... has been carried on in wake games and traditions, and that the current state of the merry wake is a reflection on the past and its customs. Ó Súilleabháin makes no argument about the possible resistance aspect of the wake to ecclesiastical authorities, albeit extensively mentioning the various church synods and their subsequent rulings regarding aspects of the wake tradition (specifically, drunkenness, hired keening, excessive hospitality, and lewd games). Angela Bourke ...

... on our own, so I can add those to my repertoire. The tin whistle, although generally dismissed as for beginners, is a pretty fun instrument. At least, I've enjoyed learning and playing it. We've got a concert at the end of the semester, so that should be interesting, anyway. My software testing class has been really helpful for my computer programming skills, especially since my home institution, Montana State University, doesn't focus on software ...
