Poor Wales Fans


There is currently a Rugby tournament of 6 nations happening. From what I can tell, this tournament takes over a month. Yesterday, Ireland played Wales in Dublin (I think). Anyway, there were a lot of Welsh fans in the city. I feel bad for them and the tourists who came to do some shopping and check out the city.

A couple tourists (I believe French young ladies) asked us what was happening and why. They seemed a bit frightened. We felt bad for them and told them to go down to Grafton street where there was more shopping. However, the unrest got almost that far so if they went there, they didn't really avoid much. It calmed down in the south much more quickly than in the northern part of the city, though.
