Fairies

Today we had pancakes for breakfast and then headed into don laoghaire to get the bus for Boyne Valley/Trim Castle. the trim castle was pretty cool. it was big and we actually got to go look around inside of it. it's the largest norman castle in ireland and it's also the only castle in ireland to have a type of dungeon that they just drop you down the shaft and leave you there so that you slowly starve to death. this area is now the castle's office. after that we headed to boyne valley and seen the burial chamber knowth. it's just a really big hill with passageways through it. we got to climb through a tunnel that was an escape route which was pretty cool. nick almost got stuck. we finally got back and for dinner we had breaded chicken that had some sort of sauce inside it, broccoli, carrots, turnips, celery and potatoes with gravy. the chicken was AMAZING. i love chicken. tonight is out last night with angela and aoife. we got them a thank you card for everything they've done. it's sad and i'm really going to miss them. i'm sure they'll have a great time in america though. it'll be weird without them here for out last week. she's going to show us how to make the hot chocolate tonight so we can make it while she's gone :)
