Ireland

Ireland, so far, is what I always hoped it would be. Its so green and fresh air, it almost reminds me of northern Idaho. I didn't feel the jet leg until after our orientation meeting and dinner. Then I could barley keep my eyes open and had to take a little snooze.

We are staying a the harding hotel in Dublin, a city of over 1.2 million people. As soon as I arrived to the hotel, I was whisked away by a group guide to start our tour immediately. I didn't even have time to drop off my begs at my room. We went to a park that seemed like it wold be similar to central park in New York city. We also toured an old home and the Trinity college here in Dublin. This city has so much history and beauty it's hard to believe I'm witnessing it. I sadly forgot to take my camera with me, but won't forget tomorrow:) We will be continuing our exploration at ten am tomorrow. We are planning on seeing a castle shortly after noon.

But now it is nearly ten pm and I am fully rested. I am planning on seeing the Dublin night life with my new roommate. Hope your days are going great!
