Well happy fourth of July everyone! Here I am in Ireland and its the Fourth. Today we did a whole bunch of sight-seeing in Dublin. One of the sights was a place called Kilmainham Gaol which was an old jail that was used to hold many of the political prisoners from Ireland's many revolutions. Our tour guide was great and told us all about the different rebellions and the leaders of them. It was appropriate for today I think, the fight for independence, even if it is a different country. Here are a couple of pictures from the main jail and also a cell. Ok, so the internet is still being quite slow, it comes and goes here. I hope the pictures work. If not, I'll try again later. In any case, I just wanted to let everyone know that everything is going well and perhaps I'll have a little more time to post things (and a steady internet connection) when we get to London on Tuesday. If anyone wants to try to talk, I have skype, which I assume you can look me up under my name or my email address. I'm most reliably online in the evening here, which is around noon there, I think. Much love to everyone!

These look awesome. I don't think I've seen very many things that are more than 1000 years old, besides rocks. Rocks and some other stuff, you know. Take some pictures of castles and little old houses too, for me.
Enjoy the scenery, but take pictures of people. The memories of scenic vistas are simple and short, while the memories of the characters you meet along the way will enrich you always. People make such interesting subjects. Keep a notebook so you can remember them all. LUVS!!!
