Uneventful week

The past week has been largely uneventful.
Tuesday Amber and I went to the Museum of Childhood. They have a bunch of really old toys from the past...but you don't get to play with any of them. We also went to the Museum of Edinburgh where we saw the dog bowl and collar of Greyfriar's Bobby.
Wednesday we went Edinburgh Castle for a second time with out Scottish culture class. This time audio guides were included in our tour so we learned a lot more about what we were seeing than we did the previous trip.
Last night it was my friend Johns birthday. We went to a place called Ricks Bar for dinner (which was all paid for). This was possibly the fanciest meal I have ever been to. For an appetizer I had crab cakes with a mayonnaise dressing and small salad, and for the main course I had a ribeye steak with cheese sauce and homemade chips(fries). Then we all headed to a club.

I leave Thursday afternoon for Ireland! I will be spending Thursday evening and Friday in Dublin. Friday evening I will take a bus to Galway and stay there until late Sunday evening. We will fly back from Dublin at 6:45 Monday morning. Unfortunatly we won't be there for St. Pattys Day, but we have been told by multiple Irishmen that it's a weeklong party.
