The most important celebration in Ireland
... very proud of their country and they really like to show it. Everybody is in the street, in every village, to celebrate Paddy’s day. All the association (sports, art, community…) of the village or town are parading in a friendly atmosphere and the parade is long (in Galway, it lasted nearly two hours).
It is for sure known that people are drinking a lot during all this day (and night), and I enjoyed that ...
Cycling in Inis Mor and sunburn

The 2 hour car ride back to Lisdoonvarna felt like a long one, but eventually we made it and crash out. Tomorrow we leave County Clare and go to County Cork via a few stops along the route.

...see you next time!

... to say and I'm getting quite tired. But I do have a new roommate named Peter who is from Cork. He's GREAT! He's doing his masters at NUI in journalism. Most of the Irish students are moved into our building now so it's interesting to see them in such close quarters with us. Six of us planned a trip to Dingle this weekend. We will be staying at our 1st hostel. Dingle looks beautiful. It's countryside and in the outskirts. ...
