My Trend Setting Friends

Another weekend, another Quinn School of Business trip! This weekend we went to Croke Park, the home of the GAA (Gaelic Athletic Association) Hurling and Gaelic Football teams. It was awesome. We got a tour of the stadium, including locker rooms and the Player's Lounge! It's where the players take their hoes after the game. At least that's what I like to think. We even got to try our hand at hurling, which I've decided is my new favorite sport. Everyone needs to start playing it.


After that, it was off to Malahide Castle. While not as cool as Kilkenny Castle, it was still an alright trip. But the main attraction was the park. OK, so it was the main attraction for me and my friend Sarah at least. Ireland needs to start exporting their parks to the US, cause this place was the frickin Disney World of parks!

After that, it was off to Malahide Beach. For being a cloudy day, it wasn't really cold. Here's a picture of my friends and me atop the bathroom. Haha, seriously, we jumped a railing and climbed onto the building to get a better view. Apparently we set the trend, and soon everyone was up there.

All in all, a great day.
