Cliffs of moher and surfing day

 On Wednesday 25th of September we went to Clare to visit the cliffs of Moher, it was very windy and raining but the views were breathtaking. After a walk and taking pictures, we went down to the area for the lunch. At the end of the lunchtime we got back on the bus and went to the beach of Lehinch for surfing. 

When we arrived there were almost no waves but as we put on the wetsuits the tide was rising. We had a great time despite the cold weather and rain. Once we had changed clothes, we had a hot chocolate to get warm. 


It was one of my favourite days along with the excursion we did the hiking day and the day we went to the ploughing championship.

School

As we lived in Effin and the school Scoil Pol is in Kilfinane, every day a bus picked us up next to home, like every student from the road where Rebecca’s house is. The bus driver was very nice, Rebecca told me that one day she had stopped and invited all the children of the bus to eat an ice cream.   The classes are very different from the subjects taught in Spain this year as we do not have the Transition Year in which all the Irish students of the Erasmus programme are now. I have attached a photo of the schedule I followed during the three weeks and some things we did in subjects like home economics, fitness or agricultural science. Rebecca explained that before finishing the course they have to create their own curriculum and work for a couple of weeks to gain work experience.

Ploughing Championship

On September 18th we had the opportunity to travel to Laois to attend the Ploughing Championship, which is a major agricultural event held annually in Ireland. It celebrates traditional farming practices, ploughing competitions, machinery, and agricultural innovations.  It attracts thousands of visitors of all ages because it also has some amusements and clothes stores that attract the attention of teenagers. We liked it a lot because in Spain there is no event like this famous and that attracts so many people. In addition, it was a splendid day, we could go even short pants the sunny that was, we were very lucky, the previous year it rained so much that cars couldn’t get out of the mud that was in the parking!
