For real, Scotland is having a homecoming. Makes me wonder if they'll have a dance.
I am having a blast in Europe! The only downside is that Mom is nuts and spaztic, so she periodically drives me batty throughout the day.
We got to Dublin at 8am after not sleeping all night. Well, mom had three hours. My seat didn't recline and Mom kept jabbing me in the RIBS, so I didn't sleep at all.
Dublin is OK. Cork is GREAT! :) And the Irish food is AMAAAAAAZING! For reals. We went to Blarney Castle, and I even kissed the Stone! Hanging upside down and everything! I have a picture :)
I had my very first train ride through the Irish countryside and it was quite lovely. The whole island really IS green! And someone had forested to where there was a smiley face in one of the forests (from an aerial view). :)
Mom cannot understand any of the European accents at all, and they can't understand her either! I find it quite funny! Also funny that I have managed to pick up a kind of lilting way of speaking after like three days. I'm going to come home sounding funky. Dad will ridicule me!
They are playing a Snow Patrol CD where I am, and I like it. I like Snow Patrol, and I have this CD.
Our hotel gave us a RUBBER DUCKIE!!!!! Mom took a picture of me with it. :) I also have wireless, but the signal doesn't reach to our room, so I'm in the bar. If Mom would have an aneurysm, I'd order a drink. As it is, I reckon I'll just sit and enjoy listening to Snow Patrol. :)
Ummm....My brain is so scrambled, I cannot even recall what order I have done things. I meant to blog every day, but this is the first time I haven't had to pay 3.50 for 6 minutes of internet :-\
Europe is SO EXPENSIVE! And the Starbucks is Strange and Not Good. There's no caffiene in the coffee!! (Well, there is, but only a small amount). I ordered my usual nonfat white mocha and it was BLASPHEMOUS! There was no mocha...only the white. It was like...having crappy instant and super watered down hot cocoa, versus the expensive good stuff. And there is no free internets there! I feel what is probably an unreasonable amount of betrayed by Starbucks, hahaha.
Ummm....I'm bored and distracted and it's bedtime, so more later! Mwah! :)
