Alternatively, Dublin's really nice
if you're a fucking millionaire. It's worth going just to wonder at how there is not one single Irish people living amongst the several million inhabitants of Ireland's capital.

Agreed.
Which is why I recommend Galway. Or Dublin-Lite as it is now known.

Dublin was great
but stupidly expensive.

"Can I have two pints of Guinness please?"
"Sooortanly soor, that'll be ten Euros"
"I said two pints"

Yep that's about it
When I went it was nearly six Euros a pint. And this was when a quid got you about 1.20 Euros. It's also the only place I've ever been where I heard an advert exhorting people to go to the pub. First thing on the radio in the taxi. Dara O'Briain. Who doesn't live in Dublin. Because he's Irish.

If you want Irish you should go to New York.

Bar hopping and the food was good.
People were all pretty sarcastic, which makes me laugh.

I'd love to go back to America and enjoy it properly this time.

where would you go?

( Lisette von Falcon, Wed 2 Feb 2011, 14:33, Reply)

I don't really know.
Michael S has invited me over to his neck of the woods, which I think is Vermont. I quite like the idea of visiting San Fransisco or New Orleans.

fuck yeah New Orleans
I so want to go further south. Mississippi, Louisiana, oh man that would be an amazing road trip.
