Hey folks,
Again, I apologize for being behind on blogging. So, this post s about yesterday (May 25). However, today's a free day which means no travels and lots to catch up on. Woohoo! So, here we go:
Carrickfergus Castle
Yesterday, we went to Carrickfergus castle. This castle has been used for over 1,000 years and was not turned over to the government until the 1920s. As a history geek, I loved this place. So many cool stories, so much history, all in a beautiful location. Here are some pictures from the castle:
Fish N' Chips
We then went to a Fish N' Chips joint where we had just the chip portion of the meal. Chips are like fries, however, they are not crispy and are coated with vinegar and salt. Very yummy, but very filling.
First Injury
Almost every night we play soccer. Since it doesn't begin to get dark until after 11PM we often play really late. And, we often play much longer than expected (we often think it's only 8PM when it can really be 9PM ext because the light is so much different from home). A few nights ago while playing defense (bring back so many awesome memories from high school soccer!) I got kicked in the shins pretty hard. I got a pretty nasty bruise but, hey, I blocked the ball. So all is well :-)
