Looks like I'm not very good at keeping my promise regarding blogging. Whoopsie! I can't believe I've finished my third week here! Only two more weeks left? Its just unreal.

This week my field trips were to Ardmore and Lismore. Ardmore had a lovely beach and we took a two hour walking tour of the town, completed with burger and chips takeaway and an ice cream cone. I can't seem to find the photos from that trip anywhere and I'm hoping they are just sitting around on one of my random USB or SD cards somewhere? Lismore was another small town. We went to the castle of Lismore and I spent the bulk of my time in the gardens which were just beyond lovely! I got to experience the Irish cinemas today for my two viewings of the new Harry Potter movie (don't get me started on my feelings on that... I cried); not much is different except don't ask about their free refill policy without being prepared to be laughed at to your face. Our theater was super hot for some reason and we were also the ONLY ONES to show up early for the movie. Apparently, they don't do premieres big here. Everyone just shows up right before the showing is to begin. Silly Americans. Ah well :P

Aaaaaand here are some random pictures!
