Cork

 I visited the town of Cork the 23 of September with my host family. 

Cork is town situated in southeast of Ireland. 
Cork is the most populous county in Ireland. This was the city I visited the other day with my host family. We were at the English Market. It is a market of local products. They have fishmongers, greengrocers, butchers. I was very surprised because there were stalls with products from all countries. 

 At half past two I went to have lunch to a Irish pub. I was amazed because the building wasn't very big but in the inside it was very big and it has got lot of rooms. 
I ate a meat pizza. It was very nice. 
The rest of the day was filled with shopping, buying presents for my Spanish family. We also wandered around the streets of Cork. The buildings are not big but very colourful. 

In the evening we came back home and at eight o'clock my host family and I were watching the rugby match between Ireland and South Africa. The match was very exciting and finally Ireland took the game.

 On September 27th my exchange in Ireland finished.I was very excited because I just had such an incredible experience. I had met many nice people and seen many new places.That day we were traveling all the time. We left Kilfinane at seven o'clock in the morning. We went by bus to Dublin. At the airport we waited for the plane. Our flight was delayed because of thunderstorms. At six o'clock in the evening we arrived in Bilbao. There we took a bus that took us directly to Logroño.     When I arrived to Logroño I was very exicited to see all my family. My friends came to pick me up at the bus station. It was a surprise for me, because I didn't know they were coming to see me. I was happy because it had been a long time since we had seen each other. This experience has helped me a lot to discover new things. I am a very shy person and I think that this experience has helped me to be more open and now I can do more things that I didn't do before because I was embarr...

18th September in Ireland surfing and Moher cliffs

Imagen
 Today we had an excursion for all Erasmus students. To get to the beach we had to take a bus that took two and a half hours to get to Lahinch. We arrived to the place and went to put on our wetsuits. It was my first time surfing in a long  time but I wasn't too nervous. In the sea there were many waves and the water was very cold. We had our wetsuits on and it wasn't too cold. We spent two hours surfing. I had a great time because I managed to get up many times on the surfboard. By the time we finished I was very tired. We went to the bus and arrived at the Cliffs of Moher. The Cliffs of Moher are visited by many people. They are very high and black in color. One of the most beautiful things I have ever seen. That was my favorite excursion because we did lots of things in a day

Weekend in Ireland

Imagen
 There was one weekend that I did a lot of things. Saturday was the start of the San Mateo festivities in my city in Spain. All the exchange students went to a park to see it together and then we went to Limerick for the day. Went shopping some things we need. We walked around the streets. The buildings aren`t as in Spain.The houses had two or three floors. The streets were very long because there were many buildings of this type.   On Sunday we went for a walk in a park in the town of Mallow.     It rains a lot in Ireland, the landscape is very green. I was playing with my Irish dog, Lola.  I was running with her in the park.   There was also a field with deer. Lola thought she was a deer and ate grass. In that park there was a very grand old house. It was a cafeteria. I was also playing with Lola running around the park.  Finally in the afternoon we went to visit the grandparents. We took a walk in the Charleville park with them.
