Ireland Photos-first entry


View off cliffs at Dun Aengus on island of Inishmore in Aran Islands.



Here are some pictures from my trip to Ireland so far. There is usually a long wait for computers and time to download all the ones I wanted to, so will try to add more next week.


Mom, dad, Aunt Diane and Uncle Jim at Burlington hotel. Our Hotel in Dublin- Jury's Burlington

Grafton Street - Dublin



Streets of Dublin Powerscourt Waterfall

With mom and dad at Powerscourt Waterfall.

Our B&B in Mooncoin, outside Waterford.




Showing the bar staff at the Rose of Mooncoin how to make "real" lemonade, not the fizzy stuff. When I ordered a lemonade, they asked me red or white? It was actually TKS lemonade-soda.

Our B&B in Killbritain (near Kinsale), owned by the McCarthy family whose ancestors supposedly lost Killbritain Castle in a game of cards.





St. Kevin's Kitchen-monastic ruins-Glendalough





University College Cork (UCC) campus-quad. This is where I am attending classes with Texas Statue University. There are about 14 of us.



St. Finn Barres Cathedral and Holy Rosary in Cork.



Irish Coast Guard


Below are pictures to the Aran Islands and on the island of Inishmore. The picture of boat with the fishermen is called a curagh, a tiny traditional boat used by islanders for centuries. The giant cliffs are a view of the Cliffs of Moher from the ferry.









City of Cork


Taken in the City Gaol - Cork. I thought the staff said mists or ghosts appear occasionally.??? This was not taken with a flash nor was there any glass or glare reflecting from window. ??????

Here is another one from a winding stairwell in the jail. The light blob on the upper window is smaller, part of it also sits is on the window pane, then the blob/light stops, is not directional. I did check the position on the lens and although they seem similar, they are different sized and a slight difference in position, so definitely no spots on the lens here.

Susan,

I am reliving my trip to Ireland thru your pictures! I was there in 1991 when I was studying abroad at The University of Wales at Swansea through the program at The University of Tennessee, Knoxville.

I know your experience is wonderful and I can't wait to read more blog updates!

Hey guys,

I'm just browsing sites for the children of Haiti.

I'm doing my part for a non-profit group that spends their time to
building an oppurunity for the kids in haiti. If anybody wants to give money then this is the place:

[url=http://universallearningcentre.org]Donate to Haiti[/url] or Help Haiti

They provide kids in Haiti a positive learning environment.

Please check it out, they are legitimate.

It would be awesome if you could help us

This banking Internet option has been very popular not only for customers who want to have some control over their account without having to go to the bank but for banks as well whose man hours have been freed up from performing simple tasks like balance inquiries, account transfers, and the like because the customer does it himself with banking Internet.

Since the whole idea of banking Internet is to make banking as easy as possible, most banking Internet sites will allow you to make a transfer from a brick and mortar bank to the banking Internet site as often as you like with no charge or a small fee.

The Meringues beat a defensively weak Espanyol, knowing when to accelerate and when to pause in their game. Xabi Alonso, Barn and Guti made the team’s game plan easier with their great work in midfield. [url=http://www.pulsebet.com]kaka[/url] The second goal of the night came after Xabi sent a pass to the edge of the box, from which Messi drove a precise, angled left-footed shot into the far corner of the net. Then, left alone in the penalty area, Gerard Picque took a pass from Ibrahimovic and finished the play with an easy throw that passed the goalkeeper and moved the score to 3-0.

5.) However, if you are playing very large jackpot games, it is better to play with fewer cards. Huge jackpots attract numerous players and your winning odds are low. Hence, you can make your money last longer by playing few cards. [url=http://www.bingokisses.com]online games bingo[/url] Another bingo system functions through the positions in the bingo card. Every bingo card has 24 numbers with a free spot in the middle. All 24 numbers have strategic positions in the bingo card while the remaining numbers occupy dead positions or squares. Probability of winning combinations occupying strategic positions is high. The dead squares come into force only in bingo combinations occurring in horizontal or vertical positions. [url=http://www.bingokisses.com]free bingo game[/url] If you do not know anyone who uses the gaming sites or you want some additional reinforcement your first port of call should be an online bingo community. By reading reviews by other people who use the Bingo sites, you will be able to get a feel for the different sites that exist and make a more qualified decision about which one you would like to use. The knowledge concerning different sites and what other users consider important about them is an invaluable tool for the new online Bingo player. Whether it is for fun or for money, there needs to be an element of integrity within the site and a potential for the player to win the game. The knowledge of other users concerning specific sites will tell the new online Bingo player whether the site is for real or is just masquerading in order to harvest the players email addresses in order to bombard them with spam, or worse con them out of their hard earned cash. This can all be avoided with research and trying before you buy, as mentioned earlier the best places to scope out bingo sites is by using a review site or Bingo members forum.

In bingo, each player will get a sheet, which has six cards with a total of 90 numbers. On each one of these bingo cards, you will find 27 spaces grouped in 9 columns x 3 rows format. Each number is unduplicated; hence, it will not be repeated anywhere else in the sheet.

If you have been carrying out some research into [url=http://www.hotdeal.vn/]Thoi trang nam[/url], then you may possess a decent idea of what is well-known. It does appear that what can be taken and used is dependent on certain criteria. Your specific situation will influence what additional areas of investigation you have to consider. It is not always safe to assume you have absolutely all the details and can stop reading and studying. Assembling the big picture for any subject is often not easy or fast with online research. Here are a few things we have found out about this topic, and hopefully it will be a few more pieces of the puzzle for you.

The relative complexities of men's and women's style

Both women and men could feel the difficulties of keeping their clothing up-to-date and in season, yet men's style usually seems a lot less difficult. Of course, for both genders, outfits and style options could be quite as complicated, and there are numerous'fashionable'things that can quickly become fashion faux pas - who can say they often times see people walking around in 70s flares? On the other hand, men's style has a few staple goods that can exist eternally - which man is likely to keep an eye out of place with a good-quality, tailored suit, for example? Pick traditional pieces, colors and fabrics and you'll never look out-of-place.

Why traditional men's style is eternal

The classic man's suit has scarcely changed for over a hundred years. True, there are many options for different functions, nevertheless they are all popular in their pursuit of a smart, sharp try to find the wearer. The best part about basic fashion for men is that it is effortlessly elegant effectively cool. A well-groomed lady can typically appear his sharpest in a well-tailored suit, and this can be a testament to the style of such apparel. A match will be utilized to work in several careers due to the professional search it provides to the wearer, instilling a sense of respect and trust. Similarly a suit will be worn to several social occasions, such as a tuxedo to a black-tie event. This extraordinary versatility that enables suits to be utilized in virtually all situations is what gives it its amazing side and a permanent devote men's fashion.

Modern trends in classic men's fashion

Although common men's designs will never be replaced, it's interesting to remember that changes in men's fashion trends have brought particular basic clothes back into fashion. The reputation of vintage clothing, specially, has taken back a wide-variety of classic styles into men's closets, such as that of the dandy guy. 'Dandy'is a term used to reference men who dress yourself in a classic yet expensive way, placing importance on appearance and operating in a polished manner. This development for almost'over-the-top'common style for men is evident from events such as the'Tweed Run', wherever men and women of all ages dress in especially Victorian-style clothing and decide to try the streets on vintage bicycles - with many of the men sporting perfect mustaches! This is only one of many examples of proof showing the revival of such styles. There are also numerous sites on line which give attention to gentlemanly type - such as'The Dandy Project'and'Dandyism'- as well as complete web sites such as'The Art of Manliness'dedicated to giving articles on classic men's fashion and grooming.

In summary, whilst certain facets of basic men's fashion could be brought back as new movements, the basic outfits that they are based on will never slip out of fashion.

"All it takes certainly are a few simple outfits. And there is one secret - the easier the better." - Cary Grant
