Tour Guide for the Weekend

This past weekend Jen came to visit along with her room mate Amanda. We had a great weekend and I got to see some parts of Dublin I had been meaning to see for a while. First we went to the International Bar and Comedy Club owned by comedian Des Bishop. We had a great time there, and everyone else had a great time at our expense, because the mc that night seemed like he was awfully fond of jokes concerning the Americans in the crowd. The next day we went to Howth, a small fishing village on the North side of Dublin that is really a great place to go on the odd chance that there is good weather. Luckily there was no rain and we enjoyed the nice views, curious seals, and good seafood. Sunday was spent walking around the Hugh Lane Gallery, the Garden of Remembrance, Grafton Street, and St. Stephen's Green. I had a great time and I'm glad Jen was able to come visit.
