Recovered and Ready to Go


After a long night of sleeping, randomly waking up, and being confused as to my whereabouts, I started the day with a "traditional Irish breakfast" (yes that's actually what these people call it), which can be translated into "meat plate."

Eggs, ham, bacon, sausage, white "pudding", black "pudding, baked beans, toast, a grilled tomato, and tea. -------------------->
After demolishing this meal (if you know me, you shouldn't doubt that I am very capable of doing this), I went to see my dorm and then went shopping across the Liffey with mom and grandma. Would you believe it? The sun shined the whole day. Meaning we were able to shop all day. We had our post-adventure dinner at Mssrs Maguire, a bar in which I lost my Guiness virginity. It washed down my "100% Irish beef" cheeseburger and side of "chips" beautifully. I felt so IRISH.
We ended the day by going to the famous (and pretty small, surprisingly) Gate Theater to see Jane Eyre. It was a brilliant adaptation of the book and the acting was AMAZING. Like, the young girl who played Jane as a child would shake her head in disgust at our Disney Channel people. I'm definitely not a theater junkie but the performance honestly blew my mind.
In short...DAY 2 FOR THE WIN.
