Dublin Zoo and Trinity

The last weekend, last visit with the international association, we took advantage of good weather for Irish visit the Dublin Zoo, and spend the day at the Phoenix Park (the largest park in Urban Europe). The zoo is fairly well structured and very informative about animals it hosts, basically the only problem is that it is a bit expensive for my taste ...





I love the lazy ...















I hope that's clear now ... If you know more than half the words and their nuances, you have my gratitude.











veridiction for the first time in my life, I saw monkeys chewing gum, if you enlarge the photo of the Orang Utans, you'll see the white pulp they chew , and have long observed, it is actually chewing gum (there's one that would put him across the head, after he failed to extricate it. I do not know where they grabbed the chewing gum, but it is not very common.

Croke Park Stadium GAA Museum and

Welcome to Croke Park (Pairc Chrócaigh Irish).
This week I visited Croke Park stadium with Jan (my roommate). Croke Park is the home of GAA, Gaelic Athletic Association, is the umbrella organization for all Gaelic sport, ie, Gaelic football (which is a mix between football and rugby), hurling ( which is a kind of cricket, football, rugby) and the latter is much less known is the Gaelic handball (which is a sort of Basque pelota but bare hands).
Croke Park is 82,300 seats, the fourth largest stadium in the world (yes, it does not bored ...). And to think that this point is reserved exclusively for Gaelic sports and the greatest concerts in Ireland. Well, okay, you tell me that the team has played in France two months ago (she has also done well to have). In fact the second stage of the city, the rugby and football, is being renovated, so exceptional, international matches are allowed at Croke Park during the time of the renovation of the other stage.
's go for a visit :

It's actually a mound that was created in 1916 Ammassa debris from the city after the battle that took place in 1916 between Irish and English (1916: date of the proclamation of the Republic of Ireland ):



Tribune called stand Cusack, Michael Cusack and the GAA's founding fathers:

photos above were taken from called the Hogan Stand forums. It is named in memory of Michael Hogan, who was the captain of Tipperary and who was shot during a game: The story was passed November 20, 1920, it's actually retaliation for the assassination of 12 British intelligence officers a few days earlier. During a match between Tipperary and Dublin, paramilitaries raided English on the lawn and opened fire on the crowd and players. 14 people died that day, including Michael Hogan, and this event is now called the Bloody Sunday (not to be confused with the Bloody Sunday which took place in Northern Ireland in Derry in 1972).

Hogan In the forum, there are plenty of rooms, including this one which is a showroom.

The next room is the press room, or rather the parlor of the newsroom.
I present The Sam Maguire Cup which is awarded to each team that wins all Gaelic football championships. On the base, each plate is a winner:
Liam MacCarthy Cup Around, which, as you may imagine, is awarded annually to the winner of hurling championships, again, there is a massive base with plates of winners:
