... visited Trinity College and experienced an actual college campus. It was great to see another college campus and imagine what it would be like to go to school in a foreign country. We then stayed in a hotel where we had far less beds than people and I played a game of musical beds all night. Gratefully, our room stayed up late talking so that the lack of sleep was easier to comprehend because I didn't have any space on a bed. <br>

... cute little Irish pub in the Temple Bar area, where we had a drink and talked to a couple of the locals. And attempted to follow what was going on in the soccer match. It was fun, but very low key which is what we wanted. We got to bed by midnight....the others came crashing into the hostel at 4am.<br><br>The next morning, the three of us got up at 9 and got checked out of the hostel and ready to go. We ended up having to get the rest ...

... a site to behold. We walked around the tourist part, but we were soon done with that and decided to venture off the beaten path a bit... Now I am sure you all know that I am pretty accident prone, so when we went to the area that was "off limits" (though there were a ton of people hopping the wall) I was a bit scared, but I survived and got the best pictures of the day from it.

... of 4 rings on a cliff. You can&#8217;t beat the view. I did however scare poor dad who thought I was dangling my legs over the side, when in reality there was another slab of rock beneath my feet. He wasn&#8217;t about to come over to inspect. The rest of the day was ours to explore. Stopher and I rode to the sight of Seven Churches, and he and a few other brave souls took a swim in the icy ocean. On our way back to the ferry ...

... Normally not a problem but there is a heat wave going on. The room was about 85. Darren came up with a solution and tonight we are in a room with AC.<br>Today we spent the day doing a self-guided walking tour. We did see the highlights but missed some of the others. Perhaps we will see them tomorrow evening. Pictures will come when I can get the time to sort them. <br ...

... and started shooting black-and-white photos. Initially I was put off by her characterization of French people as snobs, but she turned out to be a thinker. We hit it off somehow, each sensing a "kindred spirit." Something about her face, I think...keen eyes, maybe, or curious demeanor. We exchanged e-mails, and maybe we'll get in touch sometime.
