Twenty.Twelve

Ireland 2008
"A little something to chew on later"

• Hearing an Irish guy talk to his mom on the phone, like any son would, and then talking to his friend like a drunken sailor.
• The man on the bus, who had "met" every president and celebrity known to man.
• Seeing the Cliffs of Moher completely by ourselves, in a hail storm.
• Seeing real Irish countryside on the road from Galway to Doolin
• Meeting "Mr. Guinness" in Killarney over store bought chicken wraps
• Discovering that something is in Irish water that makes the men stunning
• Climbing all over the Blarney Castle and kissing the stone.
• Carving our initials in the window of Blarney Castle (on the way down)
• Me drinking Ash 2 to 1, in half her time
• contemplating getting a tattoo and then deciding to save it for later
• Drinking a pint at the top of Dublin
• Talking until 1 AM the night before we headed home
• Realizing how well we compliment each other-" If we had rented a car, we would have gotten lost, safely."
• Having an awesome trip without a single bump.
• Ashley sounding like a terrorist on the plane ( a few seconds ago) "That was the bomb!"
• Sleeping in the same twin bed at Miss Annie's, fearing for our lives. Me wearing a now hat: bed bugs.
• Successfully completing a 12 day journey without sad tears or animosity.
• Growing closer as sisters and friends.
