Don't Cave to Beer Pressure. . . .

Well, my dear readers, I'd be lying to you if I said that Irish people drank very little and the stereotype was false. It turns out that no matter the night of the week, the pubs are full and the energy is lively. We've been out each night since we've arrived (much to the dismay of my liver), and we're never alone.

You'll never run out of beer in Dublin. . . 


I can't put into words how much I've loved the city. The culture is extremely diverse; actually, you're far more likely to find restaurants from other cultures than a traditional Irish restaurant. To be honest, I do not believe that the present day Irish culture is simply Irish. The island is now so diverse that it has become a melting pot of an innumerable amount of cultures.


City Centre. . . note the "intersection erection" statue that cost 4 million euros. .  .



We've sure had an amazing time thus far. We've nicknamed our group team swag; it just so happens that swagman is a synonym for traveler. Our motley crew of 17 has certainly embraced this. . . .


TEAM SWAG!

I will say that the only downfall of the trip thus far was my sickness today. Apparently early morning eggs were not a good idea :/ However, I'm feeling better and will be enjoying traditional Irish music and dance tonight! Until next time, dear readers, cheers!
