Jo' Burger & the Bleeding Horse

Everyday we pass this little joint called 'Jo' Burger'. The smells are amazing, and you can imagine after about 20 minutes walking from class (15-20 minutes more until home), 5:30 pm, I am always just about famished...and Jo' Burger is the place I want to be. So, we decided that we would all finally set up a time when we could go, and it was AMAZING.Joe and Brian before their meal. Joe looks especially happy:)Jeanine, Elizabeth, and Elizabeth's friend Stephanie. Stephanie was visiting Dublin for the week...Me and Adam. He did not want to smile and claims he looks like a goon in the photo. I told him to smile with his teeth, but he just wouldn't listen:) Jake and Derrick's friend Hanas (Derrick was at a play for class that night and unfortunetaly could not join us).

And this was the burger! I got one with smoked applewood cheese and fresh apples! It was sooo delicious. Who would have thought that a burger with apple slices would taste so good?
This is Joe telling Stephanie our Aran Island story. He had us all in laughter again...telling us his stories of Barbera and Helen, his and Jake's 80 year-old bunk mates.
After Jo' Burger we headed to The Bleeding Horse, a very popular pub here in Dublin. We were told that it is called The Bleeding Horse because over 100 years ago, a protestor was riding a horse off of Camden Street (a main road through Dublin), the horse crashed into the pub window cutting itself up very badly, died, and hence, the pub was named. Not too sure if this is true, however. Anyway, it is a nice place to get an after-dinner drink....very low-key.
