Matt's weekend

Friday night, April 6th, we traveled through non-ideal weather and too much traffic, but we finally arrived at Logan Airport. After only one forgotten passport, the group was ready, and we checked our bags. There were many group pictures and goodbyes from parents as we moved on to security. After some of the bags were checked, including mine because I forgot  that I had a bottle of sunscreen from 7th grade in there, and a few pat downs, we continued on to our terminal. Students dispersed for food and waited in long lines to get snacks and drinks for the long plane ride ahead. We boarded the plane, and everyone tried to  trade seats last minute for an aisle or window seat. The flight was filled with sleep, movie watching, talking with friends, and eating the dinner and breakfast they served. We landed in Dublin, had our passports stamped, reclaimed out luggage, and met up with our host brothers without any troubles. We met our host famili

Marvelous Monday

         Going to the Wicklow Mountains was an amazing experience. The view was incredible. Even though we were not at the top, you could see so much of the mountain and fully experience its beauty. We learned so much about the history of the mountains as well as the type of land that is at the bottom of the mountains. We were able to see the areas where mining took place as well as the areas untouched which were full of trees. Unfortunately, we did not walk up them because it was very windy, but it was still an unbelievable experience overall, and I would love to revisit it someday.                                                                                                     River at the base of the mountains  On our way up to the Upper Lake         One of our stops on the Wicklow tour was Glendalough. This is a monastery that existed when Vikings still inhabited parts of Ireland. We learned about the history of the monastery, especially about the circular towers w

Terrific Thursday

           Like every morning, we started off the day with breakfast, except this time in a home economics class. There were two teachers who taught us how to make Guinness brown bread and scones. After they made both to show us how, they gave us the chance to make them ourselves. We were each assigned a partner, and had our own station. We all made scones, and it was a very fun experience for the BC High boys to cook and make food that is popular in Ireland. After they were ready, we all sat down together and ate the scones we made and the brown bread with Irish smoked salmon, ham, Irish cheeses, Irish jams, clotted cream, and homemade pickles. It was a very fun and enjoyable experience for all of us.   Today we also went to the Irish Parliamentary building. There, we saw where the lower house and the upper house, or senate, meet. It was very interesting for the BC High students to see how similar the room where the Irish Parliament meets to where Congress meets. Th
