YAYYY i figured out how to adda comment spot--so u all won't feel like you're breaking into my uh "secret journal space" haha. But do post so i know i'm writing to some one..out there in internet land..

Oh i feel so hip.

Anyways--as for the real er update--i took a tour around rural ireland on sunday and it was---gross and rainy and gray--but wonderful. I've been wanting to see the counrtry/countryside since i got hereand finall was able to do it--even if i was sneezing and coughing like a mad woman. Our tour guide's name was DES and he was quite the irish character...he was old and shiny white curly hair and kept making dirty irish jokes!! But anywho the sites--we went to the Cliffs of Mohr which were incredible truly--these massive rocks rising up from the earth stretching west until they reach the ocean and then at the ocean crashing against the waves creating white foam. Luckily when we where there the gray sky broke and there was blue sky and sun. I'm going to take a few more photos but then try to upload them so u guys can see---incredible--the definition of AWEsome.

We also saw some old castles and went to this cave(the ailwee cave to be exact) that used to house brown bears back in the day(ie 1500 yrs ago) and then we went to this small irish town for lunch. I'm hoping to go to cork next weekend...but would have to go with my super annoying flatmate--but it would be completely planned and there'd be other people there...so it's a toss up. Heads or tails?

Heads Carolina Tails California somewhere greener somewherewarmer...

POW!
