This is probably the last time I'll speak of Ireland before I leave. Mainly because I know you're probably starting not to care, and because I'm just gonna be swamped with things to do until next thursday. We're getting around to finalizing the trip and the itinerary has some pretty sweet things for us! Some of the places we are visiting are the National Aquatic Center, Department of Sport, Culture and Tourism, Football Association of Ireland offices, Sport Institute of Northern Ireland, Irish Football Association, Tollymore Mountain center, lots of other foreign-sounding places, and we're gonna catch a few sporting events. I'm almost positive that my favorite part of the trip will be at the end when we visit and stay at the Donegal Adventure Center in Bundoran. We're staying there for the last 4 days and we're gonna surf, do the ropes course, take a tour of Yeats Country, and probably jump off some cliffs into the ocean. As freakin exciting as this all is, I'm kind of hating the fact that I have to drive on the left side of the road, the 6 hour flight, and it'll probably be 40 degrees the whole time. But who cares, it's Europe and it's going to be beautiful. And if I can drive in lots of Dublin tourist traffic in the rain and on the wrong side of the road, then shoot, I'm gonna go get my p.h.d because I'll have proven I can do anything.
Fact finale: the whole island is about the size of Indiana.
