9th of July. Girls.

Today we had a Gymkana in the village. Everybody had twenty questions to answer, and for some of them we needed to ask local people in order to succeed. Afterwards, we baked cookies following an American recipe.  

8th of July. Girls.

We took a kayaking trip, “Go with the Flow River Adventures”, on the River Barrow. Nobody sank and everybody had a lot of fun. We sailed down waterfalls and we got exhausted by the rowing, but our effort worthwhile.

Today it was rainy too. In the morning the little ones were writing postcards for their families and in the afternoon we did gymnastics. They also cleaned up their bedrooms and vacuumed the floor.

After the Sunday Mass, we spent the day en Kilkenny. We visited the restored old Castle on a tour guide and we went to the cinema to watch “Minions”.

We cycled and picnicked by the River Barrow. The way was long, but the green hills, white clouds, blue sky, bright water, and golden sunshine were worth the pain.

The English classes began in earnest. For sports and recreation, we walked along the bank of the River Barrow.
