Sports under the sun and under the rain

Students had classes this morning as usual and then they had lunch at Paddock, the best restaurant in the campus.
There's a good atmosphere, delicious food and a friendly cook.
In the afternoon, they played games and sports. First they did three-legged races and races holding a ball with their heads and after that, they played football. Surprisingly, the weather was sunny for an hour, but suddenly it rained. So, we had to run under the trees (we've found out it might be a tradition in Ireland, Irish people shout "under the trees" anytime it rains, so we can understand why there are so many trees in here). From 4 to 5, students went to the Sports Arena to play indoor basketball and football, while some others went swimming to the 50m Olympic swimming pool.
After having a shower, we had dinner at Scholars, the second best restaurant.
What a surprise when we found out that in the evening activity there was a new group of Italian people to meet!! We did a speed-talking activity consisting of talking to different people for 2-3 minutes and then change to meet new people each round. It was a good activity to break the ice with the new students. The last activity and the one they enjoy the most was Blind date. Good night!
