Post Wicklow, current Dublin

Well the rest of my European adventure has begun. I will always remember my time at the hostel in a wonderful light. It's very rare that many people can come from different countries, and have barriers with communication but still be as close as those who worked at the hostel were. Granted, we did have certain things to bond over, but to think that I worked with 34 different people from about seven different countries and got along and got to know them all is quite a cool thing. I wish everyone there the best, and that they enjoyed my company as much as I enjoyed their's.

I just bought my train ticket to Cork, and am excited to go snoop around some libraries to see if I can find some ancestral links. I also just had my first European soccer/football experience, as I was walking to find this Internet cafe I'm sitting in at the moment, I stumbled upon Mother Kelly's and had a quick pint with 20 rabid Liverpool fans. OK, maybe rabid is a bit of an overstatement, but they were definitely enthusiastic.
