Pictures from Ireland
As promised, an update with plenty o' pitchers.
A bit of backstory: about two months ago now, one of my coworkers, Dan, found a toy dinosaur lying around. It wasn't a model that we sold (and had a rather signature bump on its head), so we held onto it for a day or two. Easily bored, we started playing hide and seek with the dinosaur, with finders being not keepers but re-hiders. Hilarity ensued. The game went on for weeks.
The weekend before Ireland, right about the time dinomania was reaching a loud and hot climax (seriously, this was all several tons of fun), Kim -- also an apron-clad wonder, also going on the trip -- found and hid the dinosaur. Two days passed; nobody could find it. My last day before leaving, I called her, found out the location of "The Dinosaur," and apprehended it.
Then I went to Ireland.
And took pictures.
Came back to find that the prevalent theories as to The Dinosaur's disappearance were A) thrown out during Inventory Week, and B) meteorites.
Put up pictures in the breakroom.
Got an awesome laugh/yell out of Dan when he saw the following:
Click for larger images.
(And if you want more information on the places in the pictures, just ask. And yes, the dinosaur did indeed give the Blarney Stone a smooch.)
Eventually, I'll post some more pictures from my trip, but in a separate journal -- the address of which I'll post when it's finished.
