DUBLIN

 The 28th of September I went to Dublin, the capital of Ireland.

We went by train so I had to woke up early. Although it was long trip and I was tired I couldn´t sleep due to the excitement.

When we arrived, we wnated to go sightseeing so we bought tikets for a turistic bus, definitely the best way to see the city. We saw Phoenix Park / Dublin Zoo, Trinity College, The Irish Emigration Museum, Guinness Storehouse, The Temple Bar and more. We also saw lots of bridges and I was told that it is a special feature of Dublin. Walking arround we also see the Portal, that conect Dublin and New York by video.

When we finished the tour we had lunch and went shopping. I had to bought some souvenirs for my family so I didn´t miss the oportunity to buy then in Carrols, a really popular giftshop in Ireland.

In the evening we took the train to return.

WOODLANDS

 On one of ours first days we went to the Woodlands. I have to admit we thought that we were going to do hiking. But when we arrived, we realice that Woodland is an ecological hotel. First, we had a tour arround the outside of the hotel. A man explained to us what they do for save energy and money: they have solar panels that produce electricity for the hotel; they also have an organic graden, where they have a greenhouse with tomatoes and other types of vegetables. Then we had a snack and we entered to the hotel to have tea or cofee.

   The 13th of Septemper was the firts day of my ERASMUS exange programe in Ireland. At 12:30 others ERASMUS students and I took the bus to Bilbao at Logroño´s bus station. When we arrived to Bilbao, we took another bus to drop us to the airport. At the airport, the first thing we did was cheking the sutcases. Then we had lunch and went through the security control to take the plane. We landed and took our sutcases. Our Irish partners recived us. We got a bus that took us to Kilfinane but before arriving there, we stopped in Subway to have dinner. Then, we took again the bus and after two hours we arrived. The parents were waiting there to go to our houses.

This year our Irish partners are doing transition year (TY), wich is a course in wich they try to find what they would like to study. So, they have a big variety of subject like swiming, home economics, business, junnk couture. Although they have the the typical ones, such as maths, chemistry, English, etc. They also don´t have exams nor homework. Many teachers gave class and explained us what we had to do. Others like Irish´s teacher taught us with the Irish students the basics of Gaelic. Also they are doing a musical so we lernt the dances and we had a great time.
