A visit to the green island

Just spend about 2 1/2 days in Dublin, Ireland. 15 coming English teachers and one actual teacher took the trip overseas to learn about Irish culture and history. The weather was scary authentic as it was raining the whole time while we were there. To sum up the trip it was consisting of a lot of drinking, either at the surprisingly nice hostel or at the pubs. Alcohol was not allowed at the hostel though, so we rejoined with our 16 year old gene and smuggled beers in and out. The visits to the pubs were part of the Irish culture, and apparently Ireland has huge problems with young people drinking, which is understandable after seeing packed pubs on a Sunday and Monday night.
Tuesday was spend in a bus. We went on the Gaelic trip of Ireland, and a very nice driver showed us historic places and even sang a song on the very non-sense-language Gaelic.
Dublin as a city didn't impress me one bit. I did talk to a volunteer guide in the St. Patrick's church, and she told me some very interesting stuff about the Irish people. Apparently they still hate the English people. She asked if the Danes had people we hated (and since we suck at war, there is some obvious countries to hate), but really we don't - as long as we beat Sweden and Germany in sports we're fine. She found that interesting.

Back on the blog

I was looking at a Danish news site, and they opened a public debate about which 23 players should go to the world cup for Denmark, and that inspired me to do my own list.

Goalkeepers:
1. Thomas Sørensen, Stoke
2. Stephan Andersen, Brøndby
3. Brian Jensen, Burnley

Defenders:
4. Daniel Agger, Liverpool
5. Simon Kjær, Palermo
6. Per Krøldrup, Udinese
7. Micheal Lumb, Zenit
8. Lars Jacobsen, Blackburn
9. Micheal Silberbauer, Utrecht
10. William Kvist, FCK

Midfielders:
11. Christian Poulsen, Juventus
12. Jacob Poulsen, AGF
13. Johan Abselonsen, OB
14. Christian Eriksen, Ajax
15. Leon Andreasen, Hannover 96
16. Thomas Kahlenberg, Wolfsburg
17. Martin Jørgensen, AGF
18. Søren Rieks, Esbjerg

Strikers:
19. Niklas Bendtner, Arsenal
20. Søren Larsen, Duisburg
21. Rajko Lekic, Silkeborg
22. Peter Løvenkrands, Newcastle
23. Micheal Krohn-Dehli, Brøndby

As you will see I have NO space for Dennis Rommedahl, Jesper Grønkjær and Jon Dahl Tomasson. No offense guys, but there is other players who will provide experience, and new players to provide skill.
