Castles by Day, Pubs by Night

Limerick


Been to King John's Castle. Turns out he never lived there nor did he even visit the castle. He simply ordered it built. It was sure fought over even though, and there are a few interesting bits to see although it doesn't consist of a whole lot. The archealogical part under the visitor's centre was neat to see as well as the courtyard.


I tried to go and see St. Mary's Cathedral, but it's all locked up. I'll have to ask about that one. It looks very ornate.


Went shopping for some more groceries once realizing they may not open their stores on Sunday, especially it being Easter Sunday. I've been given a key for a food locker down in the kitchen, so have stored a few things down there. Hard to shop here as I don't know the brands and they call items by different names. I asked one stockboy if they had any baked beans in molasses, and he said he'd never heard of such a thing. Oh well, I got some chicken noodle soup instead. I also bought some chicken breasts and some salad for supper. Time for a little nap I think...
