I am currently in Dublin, Ireland with some friends from my study abroad group for a quick visit to immerse ourselves in Irish culture. This trip had been planned in advance and I am glad it came together! Staying in a nice hotel is a great reprieve from our very basic living standards in the dorms back in London. When I mean basic, I mean basic, but it serves the purpose. This past week classes began as well as the corresponding field trips. This week I visited the Jack the Ripper Museum, Bank of England, a Harry Potter tour of some of the London filming spots, the White Cliffs of Dover, Buckingham Palace, and more. My favorite one of these would have to be the White Cliffs of Dover but Buckingham Palace comes in a close second. If you haven’t been to the cliffs of Dover I highly recommend, but go on a clear day. Those are not super common but we were lucky, clear-blue skies and warm. When we hiked to the white lighthouse on top of the cliffs, we all had proper tea (with China and everything). I’m pretty sure everyone enjoyed being a lady for a little bit. The water was gorgeous, and yes we could see France way out in the distance. We all were in awe of what we were seeing in front of us. The weather could not have been more perfect! I finally had my first fish and chips in England and it did not disappoint. I also had a pint of Strongbow cider (on draft) at the local pub by the dorm with a friend. I liked it more than I thought, and have never had hard cider before. This was a perfect way to end our evening starting at going to Buckingham Palace, then to Chinatown for dinner, and back to our temporary stomping grounds. It is nice not having to worry about driving somewhere; everything is within walking distance from the dorm like the local grocery store (Tesco) and other necessities. I know we all are putting many miles in our shoes and hopefully lose a little weight when this is all set and done. It is just the beginning. Read next week’s issues to hear about my new adventures and stories to share. Cheers.
