Greetings from Ireland

Dublin, Ireland 28 June 2000 (#24)

I should be ashamed of myself: here on O'Connell street, the 'main drag' in this bustling, bright capitol city of the Irish Republic, I went and done stuffed myself at the local McDonald's! (It seemed apropo.)
The final biking leg to the ferry boat at Holyhead, Wales was 80 miles. I got there in time, but then my (peculiar) compulsion to ultimately pressure-jet wash my titanium bicycle (at a gas station) took so much time, I nearly missed the boat to Dublin! Oh, well: Cleanliness is next to Godliness." :-) -AC
