After Swords – we dropped my bear back at the hotel room….and headed out to Dublin City Centre……it took a damn long time to get there. Apparently, everyone drives in this country. The day before – it took three hours to travel 14 miles – on one extremely crowded highway.

So – despite the nice bus drivers – public transportation into Dublin sucked-ass. It sucked real bad.

We stayed at a Travelodge in Swords….real close to the airport and north of the Dublin Town Center.

It sounded like all the action was going down in Dublin….but Mark and I were stuck in Swords – waiting for his conference call from work.

When I went scavenging for stamps – the reception desk pointed us in the direction of this town…..it doesn’t even show up in our Frommer’s guide. So neat…it was an adventure into Swords and we stumbled upon a castle. Now Andre wants to tell his tale.

Andrea invited us over to Bloomberg…..I had to say I’m a reporter for the Independent…..we were warned not to utter the ‘R’ word.

Bloomberg likes to think big.

Oh yeah….I’m not suppose to take pictures at Bloomberg.

It’s good to have family and friends on Thanksgiving….and it’s sad the Brits don’t have a celebration like Thanksgiving…

and in the meantime…the bears said they already ate…

Louie and Andre wanted to check my blog. They wanted to make sure that Mommy was telling their stories right.

And Andre had some Matrix thing going on….
