Walk to Dun Laoghaire

Yesterday only a few people stayed for sports, as other groups and individuals had trips arranged for the afternoon, so the options we had were going to the swimming pool or going for a walk to Dun Laoghaire.
The afternoon was cloudy and grey but we were able to go walking along the pier until the lighthouse. We had a bit of rain, but as many times in this city, it stopped after a few minutes.
We also had the opportunity of eating the famous ice cream from Teddy's, something you can't miss if you go to this place!

Wax museum

Due to a change of plans, this last week we are having 3 trips, so if time here flies, this week is going to be very short!
Yesterday we started the week with a visit to the Wax museum, that is very close from Temple Bar. The visit was interesting as besides some world famous people, you can see Irish famous people and there is a part where some historical characters are represented

Dublin by Mikel

Hello my name is Mikel and I want to talk about my experience in Ireland .First of all it's not my first time in the country but every year it keeps surprising me .

The Irish people are not too different from us. A lot of people complain about classes but with them you can learn more about the language and also meet people of other countries and make a lot of friends too.The timetable  is balanced because you alternate the classes in the morning and in the afternoon each week.

Also the bad thing is that as we are here one month, so all our friends will leave before us .

Our trips are awesome because they are to interesring things or places of Ireland so you could learn more about the culture of the country . This trip is going to be incredible.

My experience in Ireland

When I go shopping there are a lot of people andin my country is so different because there are few people when you go shopping. A difference is that here there are a lot of shops and they are very big and in my country there are small. The price here is more expensive than in my country but there are sales, and they are the same price now.

Howth

Howth is a beautiful coastal village at the north of Dublin, and we can see it from Blackrock. Apart from the fish and chips you can eat there, it is a good place to go for a walk, because the scenery is very beautiful. It was a cloudy day, but it was also nice with a grey sky. After visiting this village we went back to the city centre because they wanted to do more shopping.  We went back home to have dinner and to get ready for another disco.

Japanese gardens - Irish National Stud - Kildare village

Saturday, full day trip to some beautiful places. Although the start of the trip wasn't very good, as we have to wait for an hour, because the coach company made a mistake with the meeting hour, we had a good day visiting these part of Ireland. And as Kildare village is an outlet, we could even do some shopping!

Bowling evening

On Friday evening after the afternoon lessons we did something special, we went bowling. We spent a good evening, although there was a small accident, one ball fell on the foot of one of the girls!
It was very painful, but thankfully nothing serious happened to her, she is a strong girl!
