A Jolly Old Man

Last night we went to the other National Museum at Collin's Barracks and saw the Sea Stallion (I think I mentioned that in my last entry). It was pretty interesting. Then we attended a lecture about viking ship archeology by a man who headed a big dig in Denmark. We found out the Ambassador of Denmark was there and we met him afterwards. He was a very jolly man with a somewhat high pitched voice and a very large belly, if he had a white beard he could be Santa! Not many of us enjoyed the lecture because we weren't familiar with the region he was talking about.

Today we went to a small interactive museum about Medival Dublin. It was really fun. They had some chainmail to try on your head, a bucket helmet that was very heavy and some other stuff to look at and mess around with. Then we went on a guided tour of Christ Church Cathedrial. That place was very amazing to look at. There was beautiful stained glass and interesting tile work. I saw so many things made out of gold. The whole experience was just amazing. The whole time there was a man playing the organ which was huge. In about 20 minutes we are leaving to look at a jail that I THINK is from the middle ages. After that we have our literary pub crawl and I think everyone is going on a tour of the Guinness Storehouse either tonight or tomorrow.

So the guy three computers down from me is on his phone talking to women and asking them if they can meet up with him. He might be a modeling agent or just a cyber stalker pervert. In the last 20 minutes I've been here he's talked to about 5 women. He has different profiles pulled up and he keeps telling them they have sexy voices and is wanting to know if they can wear something pretty when they meet up with him. Right now he's talking to a girl from Cuba and he's telling her he can speak spanish so now he's talking to her in Spanish. This guy is crazy!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Some of the stuff he's been saying has just been hard for me not to burst out laughing at! I don't think I can take this much longer, I'm gonna start laughing soon! I love the big city!

I think that's enough typing for me for now. I hope everyone is having a good day!
