papers, papers, papers

Mom and Carly's visit was great! We went to Galway, explored Limerick City (they loved the Milk Market, which is my favorite part of saturday mornings) went to Cork and Blarney Castle. We lucked out and had reasonable weather for all the days, exceptional weather on sunday for cork and Blarney. I loved having them here-although it was too short a visit! Now it's on to final exams. My last paper is due monday, followed by my only two written exams the following week... Emmy and Meghan leave May 13th and 18th... then I am here until June 14th. :) any suggestions as to where to travel, I would happily accept! I'm heading to Holland for a few days, and checking out more places in Ireland that I have yet to see.. then it's home for the rest of summer and Keene in the fall, in an apartment with Max, Meghan and Emmy... should be fun! haha
love and miss you all!

Cheers!

Easter Break, Mom's here!

Scotland and England... quite the Easter break! we spent sunday night thru wednesday in Edinburgh, literally across the street from the Edinburgh Castle... we then took our night flight to london, checked in to the sketchiest hostel at 2 am and promptly checked out the next day! We of course did all the touristy things, double decker bus tour, Tower of London, even the London Aquarium! we also enjoyed some comfort of home in Edinburgh at TGIFridays, and in London at The Hard Rock. :) It was great. we took a million pictures, and all though not everything went the way we planned, it was really a great trip. Just be carful, fellow americans, the Great British Pound is equivalent to $1.75! Mom and Carly arrive tomorrow morning, I CAN'T WAIT! we'll let you know how it goes :)
