While at Kiran’s parents house this week, I’ve experienced a few firsts besides the Blarney Stone journey. I had a duck egg for breakfast, rode a double-decker bus, and went to a driving range for the first time in Ireland. I was hesitant about the duck egg at first, but Mrs. Chopra told me that the only difference is they’re bigger and have more protein than a chicken egg. It tastes the same as any other egg I’ve ever had and I enjoyed the change up.
The other first was hitting a few balls on an Irish driving range with Kiran and a friend of his, Jack. The driving range had automatic ball replacers which I thought was amazing. I’ve been to tons of nice country clubs across America but have never seen one before so I was very impressed. The double-decker bus was cool for me but not as exciting as I imagined my whole life. We sat on the upper level obviously and took it into Cork city for some food and to pick up Trey from the train station.
I am very thankful and blessed to check more firsts off my list this year.
