Theater, Animation, and a girl named Clare.
The everyday happenings of Clare, the crazy-go-nuts-monkey. <3 Shut up and read it.
Ireland in Photo Form. Oh, and some more vanity shots.
Okay, so I went to Ireland earlier this summer as some of you know. And I took so many lovely pictures and I want to show them off. Some of these pictures will make you laugh, some will make you say "Oooh", and some will show you that I am a camera whore. heart

Let the Irish photos begin!

This old 15th century castle is actually now a hotel. I got to stay there one night, it was pretty inside too. I wanted to live there.

User Image
I was bored in the car. Yeah.

User Image
In the Irish countryside there are many fine cows and sheep. Here is a cow. Moo, dude.

User Image
This was a ruin of a old church and its graveyard. On the edge were some more recent graves, which was creepy.

User Image
We found a donkey on one walk. My mom is hiding behind me, can you see her? That donkey tried to eat us.

User Image
I took this as the Irish countryside was zooming past the car. Or maybe the car was zooming past it. Um, I dunno.

User Image
An intentionally blurred shot of some plants in The Burren. The Burren= the place where there are fields of limestone and plants growing between the rocks. Some wildflowers only grow in this area.

User Image
A shot of some plants in the Burren on the side of the road. The road was like empty which was nice because we got to enjoy the Burren.

User Image
Fields of limestone. From far off the Burren looks like solid rock.

User Image
Some weird cactus looking wildflower. I loved it, so I took a picture. :]

User Image
Near my hotel in Lisdoonvarna (best town name ever) there was a place where they smoked salmon. They had this statue outside. It scared me very much.

WARNING: CAMERA WHORE PICTURES

User Image
Bored while waiting for tour at the Wicklow jail. Decided to play with camera.

User Image
Still bored. Using mom's sweater as a pillow.

User Image
Bored. And I'm giving YOU the STARE. Whoa.

User Image
Still bored, still waiting. Awh, now I'm blowing you a kiss.

User Image
Last bored picture. My parents told me to stop playing with the camera. Anyway: BIG NASTY TEETH!

END CAMERA WHORE PICTURES

User Image
I just like this picture of the sky. It looks sliced up by the telephone wires.

User Image
That's my mouth. I wanted to take some shot like that and I got it while in Ireland. Whee.

User Image
A pretty reflection in the water. That was near the B&B I was staying at.

User Image
Finally in Dublin, the capital of Ireland and the coolest place there. The countryside was nice but I'm a city girl at heart and there was so much cool stuff to do in Dublin. From museums to shopping trips. xD

User Image
This was part of a robot art show called Save the Robots. This one was called "You Move Me", there were diffrent levers and each one moved a different part. It was like a mechanical puppet.

User Image
This is the Footsbarn traveling theater. I got to see an amazing production of The Tempest here. Afterwords we started talking with the director and it turns out we had seen his production of Hamlet at home. He bought us drinks (I got soda, wine for my parentals).

User Image
The plaque for the house where Bram Stoker lived. It was a private house so we couldn't come in. Many famous writers are from Ireland, lived in Dublin, and went to Trinity college.

User Image
Trinity college is the most famous college in Ireland. It also has the Book of Kells in its possesion, which is a famous illuminated text. I got to see it. This is only one building on campus, I took pictures of most of them but this is my favorite.

And last but not least....

User Image
Emo: the gas station chain.

Well, those are my favorites. I hope you liked them. [:
