ETOH in Eire

Oops, I think you can see my posts got out of order. This actually happened on Saturday & the 12 hours post occurred on Sunday. Oh well, read on.
I like Guinness. At least in Ireland, served at the Gravity Bar in the Guinness Storehouse. What fun. Yes, I did drink that much of my beer. No, I was not feeling any pain when I left there. DL drank just as much as I did. We both are such big drinkers anyway. So what do we do after this. Why we hit the Celtic Whiskey Shop of course. We chat with "Washington" a charming young man who works there & tell him we don't really drink. So he gives us a taste of Coole Swan, a cream whiskey like Bailey's, but better because it's not as thick. Then the manager, Gerry comes over & hits us with the hard stuff. The first one went down pretty smooth - DL shot that right down, & I followed suit. The second one we didn't like so much. The third, an award winning one was just plain awful - smoky - tasted like...BBQ. The tastes were really just thimblefuls, but whoa. The story on "Washington" is he was born in Spokane. When he said that I knew he wasn't making it up. His father, an Irish national, worked for an American company in Ireland & was transferred to Spokane for 2 years. They went back to Ireland when he was 9 months old. My camera battery just died, so I'll post pics later. I have to say, the food here is really wonderful. All the produce is so fresh & flavorful. I may gain some kilos even with all the walking we're doing.
