celebratory
Topic: Roski
March 25, 2011!! Almost 46 years it took me to finally make my way into the European Union. Thank you Stream for facilitating the trip into Irleland, Denmark, Sweden and Amsterdam. My boss Eric Kaufman was very instrumental in making this happen and for that I also thank him. With NIkon, WD, Sony Ericsson and TomTom all in EMEA, it really did make sense to get me even a tad involved with those accounts. BUt enough work...
Mi negrita also came with me for the 1st 4 days as we spent a beautiful weekend in Ireland. We arrived on Friday morngin the 25th, Roski in 1st class all the way thanks to Raul. The weather was beautiful when we arrived; chouffeur and all at the airport.
We checked into the hotel and then proceeded into Dublin where our aim was the faous Leo Burdock's Fish and Chips across from the 1st Church of Christ; and the fried cods and fries were delicious. We then proceeded to walk all throughout Dublin seeing the Dublin Castle, Grafton Streen and St Stephans Park to name a few.
We had an afternoon choc cake and coffee before we hooked up with Eric at the cigar shop. Guy, the owner was a cool character and he extended us great hospitality PLUS all sort of Cuban stuff; coffee, cigars and pictures. Also had my 1st cup of peppermint tea, with a cigar that was great. Negrita had a blast enjoying us enjoy the cigars and coffee.
We then headed to dinner with Eric at a very good Indian restaurant overlooking a Dublin street. Then it wa soff to our fisrt 'pub' and more importantly our first original Guinness pint!!
We hooke dup with Vogue as well plus several Irish lads that we met at the pub. We strolled across the street to Hogan's where Rosaki, Eric, Vogue and I danced in the basement until 3am, when we ordered out by the biggest black dude I have seen in a long time, lol. Great 1st day in Dublin.
p.s. Mi negrita not only drank alot of beer (pints) but she danced and had a blast. She was being anomored by an Irish man and dancing away with Eric. She even rolled up her shirt, displayed her belly button and danced very regetton lke. I love this woman!!!
