Day 27: Walking vs. Cadbury -- Who Won?

Today I went and saw the Book of Kells (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Book_of_Kells) -- sorry no pictures allowed. The book was really cool but what was more impressive was the Long Room above the book. It is what you think of when you think of an old library. Books from ceiling to floor. The displays change and right now there is a Napoleon one which is pretty neat. They also have a replica of the Rosetta Stone and it has the oldest Irish harp which is where the symbol came from. It's actually funny because when Guinness went to make the harp their symbol the Irish government told them they couldn't because it was the country's symbol. However, Guinness pointed the government toward the copyright laws -- Guinness had actually copyrighted it before Ireland so Ireland had to make their harp face the other direction!

After that trip I came home and worked on my part of the project. I have been really tired lately. I think it's all catching up to me! Also, as my time here is ending I am trying to figure out who won the battle between walking and Cadbury. I've done enough walking to lose weight but I think I've also eaten enough Cadbury chocolate to have gained 100 pounds. If anything I am coming out even.
