A brief update

Huh. Who knew that Europe doesn't have free wireless Internet in hotels? Or even wired Internet?

Anyway. I'm back. I had an awesome time. Coolmore Stud was one of the neatest experiences of my life. We got to see a ton of their stallions, and I got to pet Dylan Thomas! He was one of the top European racehorses last year, and worth millions. His stud fee alone (INTRODUCTORY stud fee, mind you) is 50,000 euros. You can check out their stallions here. http://www.coolmore.com/stallions/ireland/roster/ We got to see a bunch of them and they were all absolutely gorgeous. They looked happy and the insanity was at a minimum. They take awesome care of their horses.

I'll be posting pictures later, I haven't had a chance to rescue them from the ag department laptop yet. My day so far has been sleeping, trying to catch up on my e-mail and such, shower, class, lunch (there was a cheesy eggplant bake...who knew eggplant could be so good?!), more sleep, work. But when I talked to Mom earlier she wanted to know when I'd update this, so I figured I'd type one up to say I'll be updating it more later.
