Still Here

Yup. I'm still here in Dublin. Why? Because somehow I came to the conclusion that it would be advantageous to just not get on my flight to France and stick around Ireland a little longer. Ireland is great. The people are so friendly. Yakov, one of the guys I met during my London stint, was here (because, well, I convinced him to join me), and he's coming back for new years! It should be an awesome party with 400 Jews from around Europe! It's been cold, but I bought a coat at Penny's for 10€. I went to a part a little on the edge of Dublin called Farmleigh and it was really pretty there. Also, Yakov, Rubens (the guy I'm staying with), and I took his car from work (sweet) and made a day trip through Wicklow, the county south of here. Seeing hills covered in snow and ice was crazy! It's been a while! And yes, we even went to the Jameson distillery and I was one of the official whiskey tasters . . . oh boy. It was an interesting evening. . .





It was freezing . . .




At Farmleigh . . . The Sunken Garden


A Frozen Pond!
