Ireland!






Ecka and I went to Ireland today. Ireland seemed to be quite small, however we did find an Irish Pub called Slugger O'Toole's Pub. There we met some girls who were hanging out at the bar and dancing to the Irish music playing in the background. They taught how to jig and it seemed like a very fun place to be. Ecka and I walked around for a bit and found a Pot-Of-Gold in the center of what looked like Stonehenge. We were a little confused as to why a makeshift Stonehenge would be in Ireland when the real Stonehenge is in Britain. We also found a castle which was pretty cool to walk around in.
