May 16 – Day 35
I had a work lunch, well kinda lunch. It started at 3pm and we ate until 5:30. Not quite sure what you call a meal in the middle of the afternoon. The most noteworthy item was that I tried traditional Irish black pudding. (here is an online definition - Black pudding or blood pudding is a sausage made by cooking animal blood with a filler until it is thick enough to congeal when cooled. ) I had seen it and not been brave enough before to try it. The guy across the table from me ordered it and the Canadian girl and I and I both tried it. She actually liked it and all I could say was that it was not something that I would ever order. Well at least I tried it!
May 17 – Day 36
Lauren, from church, invited me over for dinner. Lauren also invited a friend of a friend, who was born in Iran, lived in Argentina, studied at Cambridge in England and has spent the last 4 years in Israel. She speaks 5 languages and just moved to Dublin for a job. It is amazing to meet so many people from all over the world. I had no idea that I would meet so many international people in Ireland!

Anyone who knows Tara knows that a simple trip to Ikea can turn into an expedition. Now that she is going to Ireland for 6 months, what better way than a blog for her friends and families to keep up on her wild adventures!
