Kimberly Aland - Day Three

Goodbye Kinvara and hello Dublin! Today we're going to play some Irish games including hurling and Irish football - which is different from both American soccer and European football.  *flash forward* We had an amazing time playing games. We worked our way up by starting with handball, then Gaelic football, then finally the most challenging, hurling. We had a blast, but I unfortunately didn't get any pictures. Our tour guide took pictures on Alyssa's camera, so look forward to that later!

Dublin is the capital of Ireland, and it has a gorgeous park around it - the largest in the country. Also, a fun fact I learned: The same architect that designed the White House also designed the Irish President's house in Dublin. This is because the architect was Irish and then emigrated to the United States. When the Irish flag is flying, that means that the president is in house - which he was today.
