What an Adventure!

July 21
Well, today was quite an adventure. It was our last field trip. Most of us went to Dublin. In Dublin, we went to Kilmainham Gaol. It was a jail that is now an historic site. It was pretty interesting. I had never been to jail before. It was quite an experience. Afterwards, most of the group split off. There were three groups of us. Two groups left and our teacher wasn't with us. So our group was pretty much left stranded. We had to find the bus to get our stuff, but that would mean we would have to go to the other side of town. So we had to find a way to get there. Luckily, we were able to take a bus to the center of town and we walked from there. But once we got there, the bus wasn't there, so someone had to call one of the teachers and ask him for the bus driver's phone number. Soon enough, we were able to get in contact with our bus driver and he came eventually. Once we got our stuff off of the bus, we walked to a hostel that some of the girls were going to stay at. They checked in and we were off once again. We had to walk to the Gate Theatre, which was where we saw the play tonight. We got a tour of the Gate Theatre. It is a nice building. The ceiling was gorgeous and I loved the chandeliers. It was small, but it could seat up to 371 people. The building was once a hospital. The play we saw was Molly Sweeney. It was very good. It was simple, yet very moving. Afterwards, we all walked over to the bus station, so I could get back home to Waterford. Now, I'm back at 1am. I'm very tired. Gonna go to bed. I'll check in next week. Bye.
