Highs & Lows, Part II

Day 3 of Dublin involved a trip to the Guinness factory. Lil Hamilton says I am a nerd for how I carry backpacks. So I put her backpack on and refused to give it back, just to spite her. What do you think: nerd, much?



The most exciting part of the Guinness factory is that our free pint had a shamrock etched in the foam on top. We didn't actually drink the pints. See the second picture? That's all that we ever drank of those pints.




Instead of drinking our pints, we went to the delicious Queen of Tarts. We had a better track record there. The first picture below is what we started with. The second picture below is what we ended with.

See the delicious-looking red berries on the middle plate? They look like berries which I know are poisonous in the States but thought - hey! maybe they aren't poisonous in Ireland! I was wrong. One little lick of the berry juice and my tongue was literally stinging.

Day 3 was definitely a food day. After going to Lil Hamilton's night class, we ended the day by going back to O'Neills for dinner. One meal for two people was MUCH more than enough. Check out the carb overload they brought to us:
