But it's a wonderful day in the city and open to all to enjoy! Get your lamb kidneys for breakfast, gorgonzola for lunch and peaches and seed cake for afters! Do what I do go the food route through the book, lots to enjoy and the Guinness too.. Happy Bloomsday! I love it, thanks to my 'Da' and the fantastic Senator Norris that brings the book alive, a wonderful day. I tried and tried to read it and didn’t get far.
