Embers Europe Trip - Tumblr Posts
I tried posting about Ireland… but the internet here is weird, and it wasn’t posting, I’m not retyping it now, you get posts tomorrow.
Cool Irish stuff:
I have never seen an est. sign earlier than 1820, this is so cool
The buildings are gorgeous, and they have actual roofs instead of just flat.
I love the plants, we need these in Australia.
Also there is barely any graffiti here! I’m seeing a little bit that’s near a construction area, but other than that there is so little, and the stuff is so tame compared to the stuff in Melbourne
Also I saw a coffee place called Insomnia, that is S tier branding.
Also all the signs are double language, I fucking love this, I can’t pronounce a thing but I don’t care, it’s beautiful. Plus the busses are all double decker like Sydney, it’s very fun.
POTTERY!!!
I’ll probably keep posting tomorrow, cuz I’m super tired, I have so many more photos. I may not have internet tomorrow tho, so the other stuff might have to wait
Todays Irish museum pics (this’ll be a long one fellas, I’ll have to do this in multiple posts cuz I can’t do more than 10 images on mobile)
First, all the Jesus I could find, this doesn’t include crosses, only noodle Jesus.
Noodle Jesus… this takes the Irish “meme model” to a whole new level
Made it to bunratty, this place I’m staying at has bloody good breakfast. They’ve managed to make mushrooms taste good for the second time in my life. Plus I want to steal their chandeliers… they’re so pretty
Bunratty park is great, the castle less so… I met eoin Reardon and James the blacksmith though! That was super cool, talking about climate change with a climate scientist who was there.
I shall post photos later, but I have painting to do and I’m on low power
Cool stuff from bunratty!
The doggo was fucking huge, second biggest dog I’ve ever seen.
Castle was mediocre… many tiny stairs, not good for any amount of claustrophobia.
There’s a fairy pathway, I’m gonna make a post about about that later, so many photos were taken…
Woodworker and blacksmith liked my paintings. We talked about climate change cuz there was a climate scientist there too
On the biggest fucking ferrie I’ve ever seen… it has a cafe and a cinema… I’ve only ever been on Sydney ones
The fuck do I draw to add to the Ianto shrine…
I’ll probably water colour it, but I’m not good at drawing real looking people…
Stuff from ianto memorial! Also my contribution
Ferris wheel view! This place feels like Sydney… also the birds are so fucking chill.
Animal statues and fairy houses from bunratty castle park!
Went to Oxford, my legs hurt a lot, why didn’t they put the bag storage near the train station… it was technically the place was a hotel, but that’s where the train station said we should go. My calves still hurt when moving…
Not very disability friendly, but much architecture fun, and trees!!
I am now staying in a place where my room is up FOUR FLIGHTS OF FUCKING STAIRS, I MUST GO UP AND DOWN THEM TO GET NORISHMENT, AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
anyway, now I’m in London, going to Greece on Sunday, currently in a mall that is just a bookstore
London looks like Melbourne… just with Sydney’s buses and a slight increase in old architecture…
I got the hanako books I was missing!!! Now I’ve got up to 20!
I love the fact that I only know Canary Warf cuz of Doctor who…
Made it to Greece!
I’m kinda scared since neither me or my mum speak a word of Greek, but my mum knows some other European languages so hopefully we’ll be okay… hopefully…
Dinner… I’m very scared of what to do in Italy, since I like pineapple, I don’t wanna get arrested
Acropolis museum post time!!
I’ll try to limit the photos… there are lots
These were such good cloth studies
The Greeks like their statues with cake I see…
I drew some of these but then I got tired and overheated
My pre acropolis post won’t post T^T
Is it the penis bottle openers?? Help
Scratch what I said in Ireland, THIS FERRIE IS FUCKING ENORMOUS
THERE IS A POOL BAR SOMEWHERE
THERE IS A SHOWER IN HERE, THERE ARE MULTIPLE ESCELATORS, WHAT IN THE FUCK
