How about those pub crawls?
Good morning to those of you reading this back home. Hope everything is well with you. It is currently 3:30pm here at the wonderful Dublin City University and I am just waiting for everyone to get ready to go on our first pub journey in the city. As I mentioned yesterday we went to the GUINESS factory here in Dublin and got our first exposure to what beer is supposed to taste like. I look forward to exposing my taste buds to more exquisite Irish ales this afternoon. Class today was really awesome. We had the good fortune of meeting a very accomplished man named Andre. Really no big deal though he only grew up with Nelson Mandela, is the son of a world renown astro physicist, a rock star/studio guitarist, renown painter,professional surfer, Dr, and head administrator for an incredible organization here known as the Daughters of Charity. Any way it was a real honor having the opportunity to hear him speak about what he does. It was really eye opening to see how he has helped reshape the way people with disabilities are treated. Now, most of you who know me know I like to goof around, and sometimes I'm not the most serious person, but honestly, I have been in Ireland for less than a week and it has been one of the most inspirational and life changing experiences I've ever had, it's honestly difficult to put down in words the things that I've seen and experienced thus far. I'm sure there will be more funny stories to come as the weeks go by, hopefully. Alright, well I guess that is it for now. Take care fellow readers, and remember it's so sweet once it hits your lips.
