My first Pokemon, GIs in Shannon


Of course, I am not a Pokemon Go player. So I was very puzzled when I tried to make a picture of a hill in Shannon, Ireland last Wednesday and there was a Pokemon on my smartphone's screen ;)

Shannon is a nice town: the tallest building has a big banner "For sale" on it. But plenty of high-tech stuff, plus an airport with world's first duty free shop, and a transit point for GIs - I've seen about 200+ US soldiers returning home from deployment.

And they have two pictures of Boris Yeltsin hanging on that wall on the pic: one with Yeltsin smiling, and one with Yeltsin absent :)
