The Cliffs of Moher


On wednesday we went to the Cliffs of Moher. After a long informative bus ride through the Burren, a rocky landscape, we arrived at the Cliffs. The weather was cloudy, as always, but fortunately it didn't rain. The air was not as clear as we had hoped, but we could see far enough. Far enough to see how beautiful this amazing sight is. We have never seen anything like that and everyone found i stunning. After lots of pictures were taken, we returned to the bus and went back to Galway.

The journey back home

Today started at 3 a.m. Although I'm sure that some of us overslept (I won't tell any names) everyone managed to get to the bus stop on time.  After we put our luggage in the bus the drive to Dublin began. Most of the people could get some sleep during these three hours but nevertheless we were all pretty exhausted by the time we arrived at the airport. This feeling didn't disappear whilst the security check. We knew the procedure but we were pretty delighted when it was over.  The time we stayed at the airport was shorter than it was on Saturday so it didn't take too long when we finally took our places on the plane. No accidents did happen and the plane wasn't taken hostage so that was a point in favour for it but still it was more like a thing that could've been gladly skipped. The bus drive from Bratislava back to Judenburg was the worst thing of all. While the plane had a little space to relax, the opportunities to sleep in the b

Language school, walking tour and first day in Galway

The first day in Galway started with a delicious breakfast in the morning. Our host families made us some lunch bags and drove us with the car to our language school. It was cloudy and a little bit cold but fortunately, it didn‘t rain. Arrived at our school, we got splitted into 4 groups. Altogether we had 2 lessons. The first one from 9:30 a.m. to 11.00 a.m. and the second one from 11.30 to 01.00 p.m. The lessons were pretty good. With funny speaking games, the teachers taught us some new words and helped us to improve our english. After that we had freetime to get ourselves some food and to explore Galway on our own. At 02.00 p.m., we met again at the language school to start the walking tour with our guides around Galway. The man was really friendly and he showed us some of the most beautiful places of Ireland, including the Galway Ca thedral and the John F. Kennedy park. He also told us that the Irish people are really proud of their well placed location near the sea and

The Aquarium

Today was fish day! At least it seemed like that because of the visit of the Galway Atlantaquarium where we saw some of the most common fish here in Ireland as well as other parts of the world like from the Amazon river. Among These were pikes and piranhas but also shellfish and other sea animals such as lobsters and anemones (also know as the Spongebob TV Programme ). Furthermore we had the chance of actually feeding and touching some of the animals like starfish and crabs.   After the visit of the Atlantaquarium we made a stop at the beach where the range of activities reached from collecting shells and mussels to go swimming in the sea or just enjoying the fantastic view across Galway’s coastline and the Atlantic Ocean. Later on we had our Irish-music evening where we listened to live-music in several pubs around shop street and Eyre-Square . But that wasn’t the only available source of music near this place. Most of the day you could hear lots of
