Today Craig and I had a marathon walk. We started walking at about 2pm and we got home at 9pm. By the way, all of these hours were in full light. A pretty awesome thing that happens in Ireland in the summertime; they sun comes up at about 4 am and doesn't set until 10-11pm. For example, right now it is 9:36 outside it appears to be ...maybe 5pm? It's awesome, no rush and everybody here loves this weather, it being so rare and all, so people here take advantage of it and come out and play. We walked along the coast today and in one small beach area, perhaps the size of crytal cove, there must've been at least 100 people or more..what I am trying to say is that there were a lot of people, my attempt at approximating people in masses is terrible so there. The people here are really nice. The women are beautiful and they all walk SUPER fast. I mean sometimes when I am with my family, they all give me a hard time because I walk too fast, well jessica,jennifer, and mom, these ladies here give me some serious competition.



What else....oh Craig keeps trying to talk like an Irish person, I think I've accidentally tried a few times too. It's funny, you just get a very natural urge to speak that way after listening to everyone around you for a while. It's funny though because Craig's accent turns Australian in just a few words and (Larissa, you've seen this first hand) my accent always turns into a southern twang-I have no idea why, perhaps it's because I come from the south..South America that is. Goodnight, friends. Now I will attempt Craig to take me out so we can finally have that pint everyone keeps bugging us about...ok maybe I'll just have a half a pint. PEACE
