So it's been a few days sice we were able to find the internet, but right now adam and i are sitting in the public library in limerick. Let us catch you up to speed a bit.
The first day nothing too exciting happenned, we just kinda spent the evening exploring cork and eating some authentic irish food till the jetlag caught up to us and we crashed. The next morning is when the fun began. We took a bus out to blarney to see the castle and so that adam could accomplish his #1 goal of kissing the stone. Andrew wasn't gonna do it but we talked him into it. Then we were set to take a bus to the dingle penninsula and the randy leprechaun, but before we got on the bus mark had to make a quick pitstop to buy a speedo! Andrew kept complaining that he hated carrying all this change and we found out he had about $40 in coins in his pocket.
Anyways, we had another long bus ride to the small town of annascaul or something like that where we stayed at 'the randy leprechaun' hostel. And yes, like the name implies it was quite the adventure. In our room with us there was some horny, 40 year old french couple. Everytime we came into the room they were pretty much making out. We cooked some pasta then went to the bar attached to the hostel. It was karaoke night!!! It only took andrew 5 pints of guinness to work up the courage to sing 'we didn't start the fire'. Andrew and i sang 'sweet home alabama'. The Flame(mark) was somewhat of a dissapointment, he sat next to some australian girl all night and didnt talk to her, but he says it wont happen again ;)
Andrew's performance led to a conversation with phil, a tour guide who happenned to be stopped there for the night with his travelers. Phil said he had extra room and invited us to come along in the morning. So we hopped on with the random people from, pennsylvania, australia, new zealand, south africa and others and went on an amazing tour of the dingle penninsula, for free! All because of Andrew's bertiful singing.
Then we caught another bus back to limerick where we got some awesome chinese food at 'shamrock chinese restaurant'. Today we were going to try to get to the cliffs of moher, but it just didnt work out with the timing. We fly to edinburgh, scotland in a few hours. Also adam told me to add that we shaved his head bald last night and not to worry brooke cause he's still just as sexy. Mark also shaved his mohawk, but i think im gonna keep mine a few more days. Cheers!

That blog was amazing! Just what I expected from you guys. I only wish I could see Mark in his speedo...sorry Andrew. Sounds like you guys are having the best time! Miss you guys!
i just realized I said "guys" way too much in that last post...horrible
Yippee, you guys are still "alive and well". So glad to hear from you! You guys are too funny. So glad you are having a good time.
I am sure my son looks "dead sexy" with his bald, nicely shaped head (according to him!). I only wish I was there with you guys.
Hugs and a kiss on the cheek(facial cheek!)

I love the part where you went on a random unplanned tour with Phil - those seem to be some of the best experiences. Maybe you found your calling to do the same thing in every town - karaoke. Too bad you missed the cliffs of Moher, but maybe when you return to Ireland.....What was Mark thinking not hitting on a cutie from Australia - that would be a great place to live. "Shamrock Chinese Restaurant" that sound almost sacreligious! Ben - don't shave that mohawk before you get pictures of it. Forty years from now you will be sharing this trip with your grandkids. Enjoy, Hugs and Kisses. Ma Burns
hahahaha i can picture all of this happening. mark, you should have talked to the girl....and adam, i agree with your mother, your head is a very nice shape...so i'm positive you are pulling of the bald head look amazingly well. i'm glad you're having fun!!! :) :)
So happy you are having fun. I have to admit I‘m a little jealous after seeing your guys photos! Also, that Mohawk suits you very well! :)
Ooo yeah, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
