4th day in Dublin

I'm SO proud of myself! I restained myseld and I DIDN'T go to temple bar!! Ok, last night I went out there, but I didn't go shopping. Good stuff!

First of all, my housemates are SO nice! I can't upload pictures on this computer, so I'll do that later. In my apartment are six occupied rooms. one by me (no, really?), one Swiss girl(Geraldine), a Spanish girl(Sandra), a Spanish guy (Nacho(yeah, that's his real name, poor chap)), a Swedish woman(Hanna) and an Italian girl(The Italian Girl(nobody knows her name:S)). We have so much fun, and every evening we have dinner together. Exept from The Italian Girl, she's always gone. Last night Sandra and Nacho made an 'omelette Espagnol' it was really nice! Tonight it's my turn to cook.

My class is very, very interesting, my teacher tells us a lot about the history and culture of Ireland, the origin of the language and about Ireland in general. Good stuff!

This afternoon I've been to the Jameson distillery, and I applied for a tasting. And they picked me, yay! I mean, how cool is this, they give you 5 glasses of whiskey for the tasting. Ad after the tasting you're rewarded with...a glass of whikey and a certificate! :D And I bought a t-shirt.

Next saturday I'm gonna take the Boyne Valley tour, my God, I can't believe I'm going to see Newgrange and The Hill of Tara!!! I'm so exited!

But I should get going now, maybe I can post my pictures tomorrow. ..

Hee meissie,

Ik was erg benieuwd of je de overstap van het te gekke Cork naar het veel grotere Dublin zou kunnen maken. Weer nieuwe contacten leggen, een ander soort cursus... Maar je laatste berichten zijn geruststellend.Het klinkt allemaal geweldig. Gek idee, dat jij daar zo je leventje hebt en er bij ons niets veranderd is. Hoewel....papa heeft afscheid genomen van het IMC, nou daar kan ik een boek over schrijven, maar dat hoor je wel als we elkaar in augustus weer zien. En met dat huis komt het wel goed!!
Liefs,mama
