O'Donoghues Pub都柏林的酒吧
I'm ready for a little liquid refreshment 1, a bit of Dublin's Black Brew 2. Every trip to Ireland should include at least one visit to a pub, preferably, many visits to pubs. This is where you'll find the soul of Dublin in one of the city's more than 700 pubs. James Joyce wrote: good puzzle would be "cross Dublin without passing a pub." Here is where you go to have a friendly local bend your ear, and where you'll hear some toe-tapping Irish music.
We're in O'Donoghues Pub, a Dublin institution and a favorite after-work hangout for local office workers. O'Donoghues gain fame as a place for the Irish folk group-- the Dubliners--got its start. Musicians still gather here nightly for impromptu 3 sessions of traditional fun.
So what's the answer to the puzzle? Well, to cross Dublin without passing a pub, you just go into every one

- A hot bath is a great refreshment after a day's work.在一天工作之后洗个热水澡真是舒畅。
