Illinois Invades Ireland

So much has happened since my last post! Since I was not able to make it back to Ireland for St Patrick's day, we made the best of what we could with unofficial. Turns out, everyone wanted to visit Dublin for U of I's unofficial. Over 60 people flew into the city for our very own festivities pub crawl. People not on our pub crawl probably thought we were silly Americans celebrating two weeks early...but hey we had fun and did Illinois proud. 

We made breakfast in true unofficial fashion, granted the boys made it, so it was mostly just sausage and bacon .



After breakfast, we made our way into Temple Bar, and overflowed the area with masses of college kids in green. Kids flew in from Italy, Spain, Austria and who knows where else.







Pub crawl aside, it was awesome getting to see everyone from Illinois for a weekend. Ryan came in on Wednesday and stayed until Sunday morning. Everyone went on a day trip to the Cliffs of Moher, but I had to stay back and get caught up on homework before I left for Italy the next morning.
