(Happy birthday Arthur!)
On September 26, 1759, the man who made Dublin what is today was born. However, it is for the sake of marketing to silly tourists that they decided to make a holiday out of it. Nonetheless, on Thursday afternoon we set out to the Temple Bar area of Dublin to join in the celebration. We watched a man named Dave Browne perform, who holds the Guinness World Record for the longest guitar-playing session of 114 hours. Then, at 17:59 (5:59pm), the entire bar toasted to Arthur Guinness, while drinking a Guinness, of course. We spent the rest of the night enjoying the great music and lively atmosphere of Dublin's Temple Bar area.
