Hmm--that's probably about right.

Via Miss Janis, who got it via Chef Tony--

You Belong in Dublin
Friendly and down to earth, you want to enjoy Europe without snobbery or pretensions.
You're the perfect person to go wild on a pub crawl... or enjoy a quiet bike ride through the old part of town.
What European City Do You Belong In?

I have to say the Irish would be severely disappointed in my unwillingness to imbibe in alcoholic beverages, as well as my dislike of Lucky Charms cereal. But other than that, I think we'd get along just fine.

I have been to Dublin and like it a lot. And we did do a pub crawl.

I think I wound up in Barcelona because I selected Miami as the American city for me out of the list.

I had narrowed down my city choices to Miami and San Francisco, mainly based on the availability of warm weather. I wound up choosing San Francisco, because Miami is just too Miami for me. I much prefer the Gulf Coast.

Warm weather for me, too. Do you know how chilly San Francisco gets? And the fog?

I have done my time in dreary western weather.

Miss Janis I put San Francisco and still ended up in Barthelona. I think the flan answer did it.

Aha, Dr. Smith!

Isn't flan dandy?

How do you feel about Irish Spring soap?

I belong in Dublin too, according to the quiz, by the way. I doubt you can get good tiramisu in Dublin.

It's manly, yes, but I like it, too.

I think my whiskey cake answer is what cinched it for me. It's not booze if you eat it, right?

As for foggy, chilly San Francisco, I figure that beats lake effect snows in Chicago.

Dublin has some lovely architecture, the library at Trinity, and the Book of Kells, and public transport that takes you all along the coast cheaply.

It's warm and the people speak English.

I also like St. Patrick's. But I loike Norman churches.

English, huh? Well, I suppose even with the language difference, I would still like it.
