| Guinness Mustaches! |
 |
| A beautiful pint. |
Arthur Guinness, born in 1725, was bequeathed 100 pounds by his godfather in 1752. This 100 pounds is arguably the most influential 100 pounds ever to be part of Irish history. With his sum, Guinness invested the money and started a brewery in Leixlip, just outside Dublin, and the rest is history. Now, Arthur's day is celebrated around the world in order to honor the Guinness legacy. Arthur's Day was definitely one of my favorite nights out in Cork so far! The festivities started around 5pm. At 5:59 everyone in the pubs across the country stopped in order to cheers to Arthur. My night included a free pint of Guinness and free food (not much can make me happier), and lots of live music and dancing! It was a great celebration of one of the most important men in Irish history!
