Opera Lane

Well here is a picture of the street that I am trying my hardest to avoid.  It is pretty difficult given that it is right in the middle of the city centre. This is Opera Lane...


It is the street with all of the top clothing stores on it.  It has familiar stores like Tommy Hilfiger, Gap, and H&M.  It also has a lot of European and one of a kind stores like Topshop, New Look, and Next.  They all give at least a 10% discount with a university ID which justifies shopping, right?

In addition to the stores on Opera Lane they have a T.K. Maxx, and no that "k" is not a typo.  They have the same store and logo as T.J. Maxx here it's just has a K instead of  J.

Well my roommates are having some of their hometown friends up for the night!  I can't wait to meet some more Irish people! Slainte! (cheers in Irish)

Fun fact: The word "whisky" in Irish is uisce beatha and it translates literally to "water of life".
