Day Out On The Town ;)

Yesterday was definitely one of the best days of TY so far!
The whole year went off to Dublin city for a cultural trip :) The day started with a visit to the National Library where we got to study very old and famous documents like diaries and letters. Afterwards we went to the National Museum where we got the chance to see the famous bog bodies. These were people thousands and thousands of years ago who were sacrificed to the gods and their bodies were preserved in the bog. Some of the sacrifices were very gory and cruel, most of them were strangled and one of them had his nipples cut off! :O It was still fascinating. Then we went to see the W.B Yeats exhibition. This was amazing as Yeats is one of the best known poets in the world, plus he's Irish!!! :D We then were free to roam around Grafton Street in Dublin for lunch. Me and Elaina got Mc Donald's, it was delish. (:
Finally we saw the play 'Juno and the Paycock' in the Abbey Theater. It was absolutely brilliant. It was very humorous as well as serious and tragic. The actors were fantastic. The only thing was, these girls behind us that were from another school were really loud and hyper. It was quite irritating.
Oh well, it was still a fab day :D
