Party in the UK: Ready? BREAK

Ireland:

Night one in Dublin. Our priority--eating. Had to do a lot of sweet talking, but I got the girls to agree to eat here. Best food I had in Ireland. Could be related to that bit of food poisoning I had after dinner the next night. Anyway, this place was good on night 1

Day 2:
Off to tour the countryside on a beautiful day

The Wicklow Mountains!

PS I Love You film location. This is the spot where they "meet". Meg and I tried to recreate it

We got to get off the bus and do some exploring of the hills ourselves. It was incredible but starting to get a little cold.

When we got back, it was dinner time. We went to an Italian restaurant. I must have had a motherly instinct about the place because I immediately didn't want to go. And I even wasn't going to order anything off of the menu until our waitress read the menu off. The pasta special sounded like the only good thing on the menu. Two hours later, I felt a little weird. 1 AM or so, I ran to the bathroom and threw up. Then I threw up 6 or 7 more times until we decided maybe I should go to the emergency room. So, one anti-nasuea needle, 3 hours waiting and a 250 Euro bill later...(and one last trip to bathroom to vomit) and i was feeling better. We got back at 8 or 9 AM and had planned to do the walking tour the next day at noon. Halfway through the tour I decided I needed to go back to the room and just sleep it off. I ended up not missing much because of the weather and by the time the girls got back I was feeling better. But I am swearing of food from Dublin for the rest of eternity. Unless its from the Bad Ass Cafe.

So, that was....Day 3!

Day 4!

St. Patrick's Cathedral in Dublin
