in order to see Ireland in a detailed perspective you really need to rent a car and drive around. Every time you stop in a town you need to go to a pub and talk with people. People are very welcoming and you will get a good glass of Guinness wherever you go.
A perfect pour every time. I spilled a little on the way back to the tableA harp recital to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day Outside King John’s Castle a group of dancers gathered A fellow in the pub indicated I needed to listen to this song
two days before St. Patrick’s Day in Limerick
Of course the Pipers were there Daniel O’Connell statue people lining the streetIn Ireland people like to buy small cars for economy and to fit the narrow roads. In Thailand everybody wants to have a big truck or SUV even if they can’t afford it The cleaning crew after the parade A restaurant called Wokking had some fairly good noodles since it’s a Chinese restaurant, basically. However they had no sauces at all which is very strange for a Chinese restaurant so I could not give it a really high rating.And of course you need to have gelato every day
The still house. The place to come for music in LimerickJust approve I was here This is an interesting solution. Since Covid it’s difficult to get people to work in hospitality especially in cleaning. This hotel, the George, gives you five euro a day each day you do not use the cleaning for the room. This can be used in the restaurant downstairs. This benefits the hotel since it cuts down on the need for cleaning crew, it benefits the customer and it also benefits the restaurant since a large number of Hotel customers don’t use the hotel restaurant. The hotel restaurant was all decked out in St. Patrick’s Day decorations Saint Mary’s The pre-Latin written language, Ogham, a clever series of strokesI thought this was interesting since after Henry VIII the churches were modified for the protestant Bent, the Church of England and they were called “the Church of Ireland“.King John’s Castle This castle was built after King John’s reign but named for him Excavating the Norman portion of the castle This fellow is named Ocean. He plays the harp and he explains the traditions and so forth of Ireland.
Ocean explained the Ogham system of writing which is a series of strokes or lines. In the very north of Ireland, in Donegal, there is a standing stone with this old writing on it. It was deciphered. He explained it has the traces of the Irish sarcastic humor. It says, “turn around“.
The old Norman portion of the cast The festivities begin in Arthur’s Quay Park She is Patricia to celebrate Paddy’s day I met some interesting people to chat with hereAnd of course another perfect PourAll lined up and ready to be topped offIt’s nice to see English is taught properly An old store, green grocer and news agent At Doolan’s pub the Kilkennys were playingAnd then a small group of experienced musicians and singers playing for the pub goers How do you spell day? It doesn’t really matter. It’s not a language clock, it’s a time clock. I guess somewhere you punch your time card.The deep diving outfitA very skillful man Take me back to my childhood The shopping District in Limerick A little humor If you want a clean undertaking this place looks very spic and spanBeautiful graffiti It is this organization that Frank McCourt’s mother used to get charity from as you will find from reading the book “Angela’s ashes“.
““Angela’s ashes”. This book is an accounting of Frank McCourt’s childhood in Limerick and his house is a tourist attraction but it’s not really his house it’s just a museum. If you happen to be interested in this book which some describe as dark and dismal”Angela’s ashes“. This book is an accounting of Frank McCourt’s childhood in Limerick and his house is a tourist attraction but it’s not really his house it’s just a museum. If you happen to be interested in this book which some describe as dark and dismal. Get the audiobook version in which Frank McCourt himself does the reading, narration. If you do that you will encounter Irish humor as he reads it and understand that part of the culture and why he words it the way he does but it must be through his reading that you get this humor.
This was the pizza that only cost me €3.50 because of my five eurocoupons for not requesting the room cleaningAdd to now you can see the “Codfather”. Go to the Still house pub at about seven or 8 PM and you might bump into the 87-year-old Paddy Fish.

The birds started nesting

Some of these boats at the harbor needed some repair A beautiful swan on the lake The garden at the church with some religious flexibility Look at these decorations. I would never expect to see gremlins or fairies here
Portumna
This is the castle which is fairly interesting but has been greatly renovated since most of the large large houses in castles fell into repair at different times in the past eight centuries. Many large estate homes after the revolution were burned by the army in order to discourage the England affiliated wealthy from continuing their power in the country.
