It seems that it's been ages since our visit in Ireland and yet not even a week has passed. We can still remember your smiling faces and enthusiasm the day we left for Dublin. And now that we are back, the suitcases are crammed with memories. It has been a great experience, don't you think?

We hope that you all have a wonderful Summer time. Slán go fóill. 

DAY 5

Today we have been to Powerscourt Gardens. We got inside the premises by coach and started wandering around. As we discovered the Japanese garden or the Pepperpot tower we passed by gigantic sequoias or huge cedar trees. Students were scattered all around and the morning was wonderful.

Powerscourt Gardens and the Sugar Loaf Mountain 

Eight of us to surround the tree.

Later on we went to Dublin Fair City and walked around the area of O'Connell Street, across the Hal'a'penny Bridge up to Temple Bar. Finally, shopping and shopping and shopping, endlessly.

DAY 3
Where History starts!! In the Tara Valley, by the river Boyne, we can find the oldest megalithic mounds. Were they only tombs? Were they sanctuaries? Without any doubt, they are impressive for their size, place, carvings, numbers, ...

As centuries pass by, we meet the Celtic Heritage in the turning of the first millennium: the genuine round towers with defensive purposes, the standing carved crosses, the remains of an abbey, ... So, we are still travelling through History.

Rainy and windy? What a change!

Our trip to Ireland

DAY 1
Our flight was quiet when it started, an hour of delay. The landing was smooth...
