Fáilte go Béal Feirste

Welcome to Belfast.

Gaelic is a fascinating language, and, I'm sad to say, isn't much like English or Spanish. DUH. But, yeah, "Fáilte go Béal Feirste" means "welcome to Belfast."

This weekend was a good one. Friday night I had the first REALLY good time since I've been in Northern Ireland. Good people, good pub, good beer, good walk home. There were even people handing out coffee and chocolate on the side of the road at 130am. Fuck yes.

Besides allowing myself to be a hostile bitch to my boyfriend, it was a fantastic night. If it can stay like this for the next 7 weeks I'll be very happy. The people at my internship kick some major ass, and I'm happy that I could introduce Ariel and Ira to them.

For next weekend, I am planning to visit Hannah in Edinburgh with Ariel. Hopefully it all works out and it doesn't break the bank. :)
