Bloomsday
Bloomsday Qi Gong! Tuesday June 16th.
So Bloomsday is celebrated every June 16th, mainly in Dublin. It's the day that the events of James Joyce's novel Ulysses take place, and the date of his first outing with his wife-to-be. It's named 'Bloomsday' after the protagonist of the novel, Leopold Bloom. It's quite a read, well over a thousand pages, and is stream of consciousness, which some people dislike intensely and some love, but if you get the opportunity, try it. You might really enjoy it. :)
