"Good morning, and welcome to Ireland."
So, I've officially been in Ireland for twelve hours now. I feel... tired.
I feel like Dublin is a big city... Europeanized.
Things I have learned/observed:
The first two numbers of their license plates is the model year of the car.
The doors are all spectacular colors.
I need to buy a blanket.
Where the Topshop is. Heh. :]
That their parks are the most quaint.
That Oscar Wilde has the sexiest of all the statues and will be my man.
That my straighter might blow up.
That there are far too many coins in the euro system.
That everyone in my group has pretty much traveled to every country everywhere.
That sometimes you have to act like you don't see the man you have to pay to use the toilet.
That the ginger/Irish stereotype is, indeed, a true thing. We counted.
That 6 hours is the most inconvenient of all the time changes.
I'm so sleepy. I'm just going to sleep now and think in the morning.
Don't worry. Today was fun.
Tomorrow I get to wear Viking hats and ride around the city participating in deep-rooted historical stereotyping.

Oscar Wilde has never looked better.

Oh my goodness! How fun! I just spent the last four and a half months in England (from Ca) and I can so totally relate to so many things you just wrote. "That sometimes you have to act like you don't see the man you have to pay to use the toilet" <-- favorite line right there! haha
ReplyDeleteHaha I remember having to pay to use the toilets in France. For me, it was a strange mix of wanting to be polite, but also being painfully aware that they knew what I was about to do lol.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I freaking LOVE the euro! I still have a bunch of coins from when I was over there, and I WISH I still had some of the bills. They're so purrrty! =]
