Stardate: 66786.4
Today was so much better seeing as I wasn't exhausted, exhaustion aside I'm already feeling more comfortable with traveling and navigating which is nice. The books at Chester Beatty were interesting, but my favorite part was the videos about how the books, illuminations and wood stamps were made. At Jameson I learned that the really expensive whiskey tastes pretty much like the stuff I can afford. The fish was good but it wasn't quite what I was expecting after all the fried fish I've always had...their ketchup was a little weird, we're still not sure if it was an Irish variation or just so old it had started to ferment.... I hugged a foreign man, it was weird, he barely spoke English so he's probably still very confused (as part of the street show)...for dinner I had bangers and mash, it was good but nothing to write home about (though I guess technically I am), I will say between Guinness and Jameson and dinner I've had more to drink in the last 24 hours than probably ever before in my life....
PS (Sara entered theist stardate due to my exhaustion, her error Mary ;) )
Glad you are starting to feel yourself again. I love hearing your spin on the day and its adventures. Keep up the witty blogging! Bangers and mash must have been pretty bad considering how much booze you had before eating. I suspect you will have to wait until the next country on your journey to get any amazing food. For now you'll just have to settle for great alcohol.
