I'm haven't blogged in ages D: nooooo
I do believe its time for a much needed blog :)
Last Wednesday, 19th October, all of TY went into town (Dublin) for the whole day. Might I add it was one of the best things in TY so far :)
After another fun bus trip (buzzin wih evry1), Fodla went to the National Library first. It was basically a room with a lot of touch screens and posters with information on them - if it was the National Library, where the books? o.O We also had a worksheet to do -_- FUUUN
Next, was the National History Museum ... 5 steps away. This was sooo good :D Spent the time sitting in fireplaces, gagging at Bog Bodies and pretending to wear torcs (celtic necklaces) Strangely, I wanna go there again. Me and Fiona also spent our time browsing the gift store for farmer hats, kids toys and crosses. Back into the point about bog bodies - yes they were disgusting but it was so weird and yet amazing that their hair was in perfect condition!! :o
Lastly, we went to a W. B. Yeats exhibition, which I suppose was good... it was definitely interesting seeing as I studied Yeats for my Junior Certificate. :)
Then LUNCHTIME :D :D and a trip to Mc Donalds :P onomnomnomnom <3
I got chocolate milkshake, double cheeseburger, 6 chicken nuggets, fries and twisty fries ... heaven
After, it was time for the reason we came to town - Sean O'Casey's 'Juno and the Paycock'.
It was AMAZING! I've never been to a proper play (Wicked doesn't count) but I'm seriously considering going to more soooooon! The set was so realistic and there was so much attention to detail - they cooked real sausages on stage and the audience could smell them!!!! Not to mention the acting - my favourite actors were Jerry, Mrs Madigan and of course ... Johnny <3 played by the swoon inducing Ronan Rafferty
All in all, it was such a good day :D and theres some pretty entertaining pictures to go with it ;)
UM YEAH BYE.
Hey Sarah, this is pretty good probably my favorite out of all of you're blogs. The National library sound really awesome, that sounds like my kinda library! Well actually I take that back, a worksheet doesn't sound that great. Also, you're so lucky McDonalds... I'm so jealous I've never been there for a field trip.
ReplyDeleteI'd definitely recommend going there if you're ever in Dublin!
