How To Fix A Laptop That Wont Move

IRELAND ITALY

We're back. After leaving to rest a bit too much the previous entry, we tell you our experience in the U2 weekend. That for those who do not know what it is, is freaky meeting that prompted us to Ireland. That is, the U2 concert in his homeland. Here the picture of a copy freaky happy.

But what we are. We'll tell you a little live there, our experience these days and try to describe to you a bit both the environment and the city.

We arrived in the morning and went back to retrieve an old tradition. Search the house like crazy, where a certain Jim was going to host. Again go through the intrigue of what awaits us and see that such. The first on the forehead. Its indications, rather they were not as clear as expected and there we stayed, with mochilones, raining, asking Christ to all for a building that did not seem to exist. But hey, at the end we found him and we had our home. A cook who lived with his girlfriend and son at home (of course, Bono y cia cooked for once).

No more waiting than is strictly necessary, we went swift and fast in the center of the world udosiano on those dates. Temple Bar We met with dozens of pubs, streets estrechasy many people, lot. And the best part is that the door of each of the pubs, music out live bands playing songs by U2, or just songs blaring from the above group. The paradise for any fan worth his salt. Posters, cartoons, people with shirts, album sales ... too.

Conclusion, good but a little ... no, not disappointing, but perhaps a little dirty. Not for hygiene but for the environment "vomit" to breathe, especially at dawn. Temple Bar, is too crowded. Too many people, too touristy, but was the place I always came to take us some beer and listen to songs of U2. Missed.

But Dublin has many more things that Temple Bar is full of atmosphere, friendly people, and pubs. And Guinness, of course, but a server does not like.

course was a must go to Croke Park to check on the preparations ....

And of course, the Clarence Hotel and other appointments required.

And finally came the day in question. Which began with good news. They gave me a ticket to the concert the next day. THE GODDESS FORTUNA AROUND YOU

Around 4 we went to the nearly empty stadium and we stayed on our sites. This is what we saw.

After a complaints fairly desperate, get new sites. Where perchance we meet an old friend, whom we adopted.

_MG_09126

And not too overwhelming, I finally realize one of my dreams, I never thought that would be fulfilled. See U2 in their homeland. See U2 in Dublin. U2 feel and enjoy its best ever, soaking up all and each of the notes they left the stage and memorizing all, as a first time is a first time.

Since this is not a criticism we do not extend more concerts. Just say something. AWESOME. Something you can not put into words.

Once finished, we went looking for freaky English who had been in a pub, but not found, so we queue waiting for the Clarence Hotel to see if the stars came, but after an hour decided to leave, that fatigue was a dent in us.

The next day dawned with a bad news. My free ticket flew, and took a chick he met that night the owner of the entry. Therefore, she took my ticket ... and I suppose he would take something in return. And then I think that we hosted in our home ...


Our last day, we enjoy walking and quietly. We went in search of a recording studio where he recorded a famous group (can you guess which?).

Hanover Quay


this entry may not described even a little bit of Dublin, but that are the guides. This entry has attempted to explain and teach (albeit a bit superficial), the atmosphere of the weekend more special this year.

conclusion, as a country positivo.Irlanda trip is fine. It is true that we've seen more beautiful and spectacular, but as always, do not believe that there are places better or worse, just different. All destinations have something magical, and small moments are left in the retina.

Catedral al anochecer

The horse attack murderer to Anne, the first dinner in a pub, and enjoy the first hamburguesota. Unforgettable moments such as arrival at Temple Bar and the first sight of Croke Park.
I want to go, I go to another U2 weekend, but I think it will never be like this, I never exceed my first trip to the very bowels of U2. Until next time, the desert awaits.

Confimation Letter To Daughter

360 360 to 1 º PART ONE MORE YEAR AND

Hello again. Here we are breaking a promise that we made small. Do not put any journey on the blog, but because of recent comments we have received on the blog, we thought we did have a break last week, of course dedicated to those who still read us from time to time, and they want write some more.

This time, fate has led us to Ireland. Island off England, famous for the Guinness beer, pubs and for the reason that led us there. Mecca. U2's birthplace. And to do pilgrimage at least once in life, we take that played there to live U2 weekend.

temple bar

What impression we had a boat so soon? Green, very green, rural, wet, nice and hard drive. Very difficult, with these roads without shoulder, whose speed limit is 100 km / h, and it seems that what I say is that this signal is the minimum speed ... And the food .... mmmmmmmm that good and healthy is to eat hamburgers every day with potatoes, or fish and chips, or pizza with potatoes, or potatoes with potato ... certainly know that Ana does not like potatoes?

After the wonderful car with manual transmission (PELIGRO!!) We went towards Galway. City located just across Dublin. So qeu seizing the moment, and as we had to cross the country, we stopped here:


castillo u2

guess someone will sound Well who knows what it is, just say, chincha rapeseed. Personal historical moment.

Galway is a beautiful city, which at times seemed to be lies, with musicians and actions at all hours through the streets and pubs, street art and much much tourist. That seemed to Columbus Street. Great atmosphere, lots of street life. Okay. Advisable. Here we had our first encounter with the wonderful local food and was the beginning of the couple of kilos fatter.

From there we made a couple of days of hiking with our machine to devour miles. The first day to the area known as Connemara. An area with coves, many incoming and outgoing sea, etc ... not bad, but expected a bit more.
At least we saw the typical postcard from Ireland to the fields and stone walls

Next day in the area known as The Burren. Very cool way. You go through all kinds of landscapes running out of the Cliffs of Moher. For just one example.

After driving all morning, you get to the famous Cliffs of Moher. Very large and advisable to walk a little to the south where you can go with something more tranquil.

By the way, if you see a storm in the distance, running the car or shelter, if you go over ready catches you without realizing it, and there if you get wet it is cold as hell ...

que viene la tormenta

under the rain

Believe us that the rain and wind with an umbrella of Chinese and a cliff of 200 meters to a few feet is not going very well.

In the following days, we drove to Dublin road, stopping in cities like Kilkenny, Ennis and a few more. Basically they are a bit the same. Small, with the main street with pubs, (where these magnificent and healthy eating hamburgers), the Gothic church and the clouds on the horizon.

Remember to choose this color for your next home.

And finally and most importantly we got to Dublin. Promised land and end the exodus .... continued ...

SAUCE KIWI


This wonderful kiwi sauce we made it home in Wellington (New Zealand), which accompanied a wonderful leg of lamb on the barbecue. We are going to explain the sauce, the lamb as it appears but is soooo long.

cenando en Welington



Ingredients 4 kiwis (NZ eh?, And cut into very small pieces. Thinking it for a sauce to mix with meat.
2 cloves garlic, minced 2 tablespoons
Sweet Chily (purchased in a Chinese shops) 2 tablespoons
lemon or lime juice (natural). Best
lime 1 / 2 teaspoon salt Cilantro

Development


Very difficult. Everything is mixed and that's it.

salsa de kiwi

Note: I do not know why but when I did know a lot of garlic. The taste of garlic should be a touch. The same is because garlic is stronger here than New Zealand, so the next time you try to put less garlic and chop very more.

Until next time. Besitos

Huge Faciale Compilation

NEW RECIPES

I keep wondering what input time we put on the blog and could not think of any. We could put more photos (because we have to bore) and have a few anecdotes, but no. Today we will try to teach and learn some recipes, or have told us or we have taken the Internet, but we have always tasted.

But first, we send a big hug to Pilar and Sam, with whom we spent a weekend in Madrid. Are a couple who gave their round the world before us and his wonderful blog was a source of inspiration for this, and Of course we served as a guide. It was a nice weekend of memories of past experiences. Certainly the link to your blog you have it below in the list of links. Maybe the best travel blog.

retiro 2

But what we were. I thought that we have not talked a lot about something we carry in our memories and that is a wonderful pleasure. The food we tried and we have cooked or cooked. So we'll leave you to try some recipes for cooking if you feel like I'm going to try to secure (some have already been done better or worse luck).

If you want we can start on a specialty of the house. GREEN CURRY WITH CHICKEN And coconut milk.

Tengo hambre....haz la foto

Awesome Thai dish, easy to make and easy to find ingredients. It is a dish that can sting a bit if you spend, but it's really great.

My recipe is as follows:

Ingredients: 1 tablespoon

. Green curry paste (sell at any grocery store china)
1 boat - cooking coconut milk (same as above)
+ - 250 gr-chicken pieces (I put chicken breast)
mixed vegetables. I usually put carrots, mushrooms or eggplant.
The recipe calls for more, such as lime etc ..., but since the meeting, with the ingredients above is pretty good. Thai or basmati rice


Development.

Put in a pan a wooden spoon green curry sauce (careful itchy, may be filled not much).

When warmed, putting him a half can of coconut milk (the boat is usually 400 ml).

Let it boil a little while just mix the coconut milk with curry. When mixed, put in the remaining coconut milk. Bring to a boil. Then you add the chicken breast. A slow fire will cook the meat.

When done, pour 1 / 2 cup water (maybe a little less) and vegetables. Allow to simmer until vegetables are done. It takes a lot, may be about 45 minutes or less.

Moreover Thai rice is done.

dish is served on a rice and curry sauce another, and is mixed to taste.
With these amounts given for 2 people and left over. For four people something more than chicken and vegetables and almost two cans of coconut milk.
