In the morning, we got to sleep in a little because we didn’t have to leave until 915. That may not seem like sleeping in, but it is when you have been getting up at 6 or 7 everyday. We went to another school and I was with Hannah in 3rd/4th class. We found out that the classes are split like this because they fell under a certain number of students. This caused them to lose one teacher and so they had to combine some classes. The classes are also split by gender after 2nd class. Some people do not understand this, but I went to an all girls high school and I don’t think it has affected me in a negative way. Back in the states, we do not have a lot of elementary gender split schools, but private high schools are sometimes split up. This was probably my favorite class. They were so excited and we spent almost 45 minutes answering their questions. Then when we finished the book, they split into groups and kept asking us more while they were working. Here are some photos:
After leaving the school we had a few hours to relax which was the first time the entire trip. It was so wonderful. After the break, we headed to Aisling’s house for dinner. Her family was so nice. The best part was dessert. They had about 6 or 7 different things. I tried some of everything and they were so good. After dinner we played music and sang some Irish songs. Then Aisling took us out for a night in Cork. We were surprised at all the American music they listened too and most of it was 90’s music. I think we only heard one Irish song the whole night.
