HOW MANY FRIENDS CAN YOU KNOW HERE!!

When I arrived from Spain I though that probably will be bored live in a little town as Wexford. Iwould  prefer went to Dublin but very quickly my opinion about that have chosen.

In Slaney school have meet people from Poland, Germany, Austria, Japan and Corea (and Spain of course!).

Since the first day, although my english was horrible, they invited spanish people to go out with they at the afternoon.

Every afternoon we have gone to the pub (Sky and Ground and South 51) to drink Guiness, sidra,... Some days  we go out for a dinner and one day at week we go to learn Iris'h dance.

Go out with a big and different group of people is the best way to speak english without shame. Early days I have heard more than  I have spoken, but now after almost two weeks, my english is more fluent and I can keep a conversation with us.

MY HOST FAMILY: BRENDAN AND CARMEL

Brendan and Carmel ara a midages lovely couple. 

They have a big and a beautiful house. Since 2006 they work as a host family and a lot of people around the world have been living with them.

Carmel is a good cooker and always join with us during the breakfast and dinner. We always have a nice time all togheter. She have cure of us as if she like a mumy: ask us about our preferit food and she buy all that things like us. 

I have had an important cough and Brendan and Carmen every day ask me about my fisical condition and she prepare to me a medication and a hot bag.

We are 4 foreign people in their house: 3 spanish (Oscar, Anna and me)  i 1 japanese (Tachashi).

They leave us dvd, books, cd's,... all that things that we need.

Each of us have individual room (a big room with twoo beds) with toilet.

Brendan is usually at work (one self work) or playing golf (it's his preferit hobby) but when he stay at home he always ask about our experience in his country and he always have a smile in his mouth.

In this photograph Oscar is taking a photo during dinner.

I know when we come back to Spain we will miss them a lot.

YOU CAN KNOW SOUTH WEST IRELAND THANKS TO SCHOOL.

Slaney school to organize about tree activites to do every week at the afternoon .

My first excursion was the JOHNSTOWN CASTLE

This Castle is a Victorian recreation of medieval architecture. The turreted home was built between 1810 and 1855.

As you can see in my photograps it's a paradise. There are three lakes with peacock, swans and ducks and a lot varieties of trees and plants. All is full of colour and live. It's wonderful!

Another day we went to ENNISCORTHY TOWN. One little lovely town at ten or fifteen minuts to Wexford.

Enniscorthy is an old Norman settlement and is situated on the banks of the River Slaney overlooked by the old 1798 battle site of Vinegar Hill. On the west bank of the river, the Gothic church of Saint Aidans reminds us that Enniscorthy is the Cathedral town of the county. Designed by Pugin in 1847, Saint Aidans tall spire, fine doorway and exquisite east window are recommended viewing. Dominating the town is the Norman Castle which was completed in 1205 and now houses the County Wexford Folk Museum. Just down the road by car there are beaches, forest and river walks as well as ancient Dolmens and Bronze Age remains. Enniscorthy and its environs has a well developed crafts industry most particularly in pottery, for which it is justifiably renowned.

One unforgettable experience was at HOOK LIGHTS.

This area is renowned as the location of Hook Lighthouse. Hook Head is the oldest lighthouse in Ireland, and one of the oldest in Europe still operating.

It has been the first day really cool. Thanks to god I caught my sky hat!.
This is a real amazing place! It's Impossible forget someplace as this. 

Today, 25th of november, we have visited a little town close to Wexford called ENNISCORTHY.
All stores have colour; funny colours and  cathedral very beautiful.
