The past few days I've been driving to work and I must say that if you already know how to drive a manual, it's pretty easy converting to the other side of the road. The only issues I have had have been with maneuvering around tight spots (i.e. our parking garage). You perception is a little different when you're on the other side of the car...but eventually I'll pick it up.
This weekend I plan to do some traveling outside of Cork, as I pick up my rental car Saturday morning. It will probably be an Opal Astra(o) or whatever, as that seems to be a favorite of the rental agency we're using here. It was either that or a Ford Fiesta...hah. I plan on visiting the Blarney Castle, among other locations, but we'll see how that goes. Hopefully the weather is a little better than yesterday, when it was pretty much monsooning all day long.
I continued the trend of non-Irish cuisine this week, with a few American dishes, including a KFC-ripoff called HillBilly's and a nice steak dinner at a hotel restaurant. I guess I eat "Irish" meals every day for lunch at Pfizer, but who knows if I'll ever eat at an Irish restaurant for dinner on purpose.
