Scott's weekend in Howth

This weekend I had a chance to sleep in. While waiting for Hugh to come back from his hammer throw training, I ate a breakfast of toast and talked with his mom. Once he got back we played Madden and plenty of Fortnite. Then at about 2:00pm, we left the house and went to the yacht club to have lunch with his dad after his regata. I had a burger with chips, which are what we call in America french fries. Once we got back to his house we invited Simon and Greg over. We played Madden and Fifa for most of the night. We also devoured 2 pizzas. After they left we watched a little TV while eating ice cream and after, we went to bed.

On Sunday I had another opportunity to catch up on some sleep. I woke up, had another breakfast of toast, and caught up on what happened in sports the day before. While Hugh was waiting to go to his rugby practice, we watched TV. Once he left I played Fortnite until he got back. Although I didn’t get any wins it was quite fun. Once he got back we headed into the harbor of Howth to meet up with Connor Waddilove and Owen Defao. We walked around the harbor in the rain until we met up with another one of Hugh’s friends. He brought a rugby ball so we played rugby for a while. After playing we worked up an appetite so on the way back to Hugh’s house we grabbed some spice bags for the road. The were very good with a good amount of spiciness. When we all got back to the house we played some more Fortnite and after a while everyone had to leave so they could eat dinner at their respective houses. For dinner we had chicken with potatoes and broccoli. After dinner Hugh and I played Fifa. We played Simon and Greg online and I was so bad. We lost in both games we played them. Then we had some ice cream and went to bed.

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 m...

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...
