Sorry I've been so crap and blogging lately.
This is what I said I would elaborate on from Ireland:
"Andy and Shiv, SOOOOO nice
Powerscourt gardens
Temple Bar
St. Patricks Cathedral
Book of Kells
Erection at the Intersection
JOHNNIE FOXES"
Andy and Shiv are the people we stayed with. Andy is Sara's Dad's Co-worker. He picked us up where the bus dropped us off. Got back to thier house, Had an egg, Layed down, 2 hour nap, then Powerscourt Gardens.
Powerscourt Gardens were pretty, but I thin, honestly, what I liked best was the food. Best chicken Pesto thing I have ever had in my life. Ever. And Andy paid for that too. Seriously, they were so generous. Made me feel kind of bad. But Shiv was so freindly and nice and everything.
That night, Andy took us out to Temple Bar, we walked along the Bar for a Bit, saw some street musicans playing THE FINAL COUNTDOWN and people jigging to it, or something, and it made me think of Val. Then we went to a Pub, Andy got us drinks--bullmers and black. yum yum yum.
The next morning, Andy drove us into town, and we had seen some stuff the night before, which had helped. Basically everything runs from Christ Church Down Dame Stree, Tuen, then Down O'connel Street. If you use that ass a guide you are golden. We hopped into one of the sightseeing buses, Drove Past the spire, or "erection at the intersection" if you will. Hopped off at Trinity College, went to the Library where the book of Kells is. It's a manuscript from the 8th Century. Friggin Crazy.
The Did St. Stephen's Green and Grofton Street! Woo!
That night, we went to Johnnie Foxe's pub for food and dance. SO AMAZING! music too! yummy salmon, but sara's steak was better. And the dark haired dancer....mmmm. I did not mind looking at that for an hour, let me tell you.
The next day, we had to pack, and headed into Dublin for the last day. Went to the GUiness Factory. Tried it, I hate beer. Pretty much, just can't stand it, so that was alightly pointless. BUt it was cool to see how it all works. I guess, I don't mind beer, I just hate the aftertaste. sick.
Flew back. Boo.

Stratford. PRetty. I got married to colin, so that was unexpected. I got my own room, which was also nice. We went to the Birthplace, and the Nash house, Halls croft and Anne Hathaway's Cottage.
That night, we saw "as you like it" with 3 of the people who had been in King Lear. Pretty cool to see them twice. AND. We went out to the "dirty Duck" afterwards and got to talk to them.

Tuesday Night, a bunch of us went to see Spring Awakening Again. GEMMA WAS ON FOR ILSE! FIRST TIME!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!! A bunch of people went. Some liked it, some didn't. whatever I love the show. Jamie and I stayed after to talk to them. Talked to Aneurin for a little bit, but he was mostly talking to the people we sat next to- Ben and Lauren- because they've seen it 14 times. SO I dont feel too bad. THen Jamie and I went out for Coffee.
What else Happened this week? Um. Yesterday we went to Cambrigde. It's GORGEOUS over there. Absolutely Stunning. I was trying to see Billy Elliot Last night, but there were absolutey no more seats. whatveer. it's fine. So I came home and Packed a bit.
