Bloomsday

Yesterday was june 16th. It was the day Ulysses take place in Dublin Ireland. People all over the place were dressed in 19th c. clothing walking around hanging out and going on the historic route. To celebrate a bunch of people in our program decided to do a literary pub crawl. It was pretty amazing actually--even though I don't know the literature it was still really interesting. I loved that I had already been to so many of the historic locations spoken about. Makes me feel like I am experiencing a lot.



The leaders/actors who took us on the crawl


start of the crawl...



next location--20 minutes for a pint--i actually survived it!


next stop! also survived but barely...




And then we decided to take the bus home--so basically I drank a Carlsberg, a Stella, another Carlsberg, finished someones Guiness, and then another Carlsberg. I was pretty much done. The bus ride was WILD. Falling people all over the place--i really hope there weren't others on the bus.

The bus at night drops you off further away than normal and I managed to fall and scrap my elbow and foot! Oh geez. So much fun!
