Dublin!!

Wow.... I haven't posted in over a month. And I never did catch on those entries. Oh well, i'm not even going to try.

SO, school broke up last Thursday after an end-of-term concert, and I left straight away for the two hour car ride to Aberdeenshire. I stayed three nights with one of the Sophia's (one of the students) Grandparent's and her two younger brothers (who are adorable, but a handful and a half =P) which was really nice. I then stayed at Sophia's house with her, her mother and her six siblings, a handful of guests and a dog! Needless to say, it was quite busy/noisy. I stayed there for a week to do a sort of working-holiday, so I helped out with the washing, ironing, walking the dog, making lunch etc. It was hard work, but I had a great time and I'm really glad I went. This afternoon I caught a plane from Aberdeenshire airport to Dublin, and sat next to a woman who was not only from Brisbane, but doing a paddywaggon tour as well! (not the same one though) Amelia also happened to be catching a plane that arrived in Dublin at the same time as me, so I met her there and caught the bus to our hostels, which are only about 200m away from each other! I've yet to meet up with Livy and her friend Hayley who are here already, because they've gone to Irish dancing and singing! The tour I'm on lasts for six days and goes all around north and south Ireland, and begins tomorrow morning at 8am, so I'm not sure if I'll be able to do any more posts. After that, I think i'm off to Germany! Hopefully!
