[QUOTE="Lexjacket, post: 243284, member: 341"] We're finally back from Ireland via Dublin to Frankfurt, Germany to Atlanta. I woke up at 4AM (9AM Dublin time) feeling tired but good, which is not bad for a 65 yr. old surviving a 10 day epic vacation of walking, climbing stairs, going down stairs, driving miles and miles on the left side of the road in the sun, wind and rain. I am grateful to Georgia Tech football for so many memories and experiences over the many years I've followed them. But, the Ireland trip and the football game was 'the best' of all. As I am starting a new Ireland thread (moderators forgive me) I'm going to intersperse commentary with pictures. We left our hotel for the game on the Dublin tram called LUAS to Connolly Stationthen DART commuter train to Aviva Stadium..... [ATTACH=full]1840[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1841[/ATTACH] [IMG]http://marinehotel.ie/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/banner-aviva.jpg[/IMG] The stadium personnel were extremely courteous and helpful, one look at my white hair and they ushered us to an elevator that took us took us to our seats in section 503. Aviva stadium is beautiful, has comfortable seats and the best acoustics of any stadium I've ever visited (stereophonic, loud but not blaring or distorted. I think the shell makes it surround sound. The weather was rainy to drizzly, the grass on the field was long and I'm sure made the track slow and slippery.

I know it wasn't pretty, but for a first game our team did well. I did not realize their team was so big, fast and physical. They were a much better team than I realized. WE DID GOOD. [/QUOTE]
