The first day with our classmates!

We woke up at 8 o'clock. We had our breakfast and then, we went to the classroom. But today it was different because we met with the Italian people. At first, we went all together in the same class. Later, one of the teachers started to split up us in different groups. 

When the lessons finished, we had lunch: there weren't much options to choose :( but we ate because we were hungry. Afterwards, we met another time with the Italian people and we started to play some games with them. We played hokey and football, it was awsome:). 

Finally, we went to the swimming pool and we have met some Irish boys. Now we are writting this and we are waiting for another activity which consist of having a blind date.

Pool's (and test's) day

Hello again!! 

Today we woke up early and... more rain, more low temperatures and no sun. We had our first breakfast in Ireland and we went to the classes building. Our center maneger, Elein, explained us some things about the Universitiy of Limerick. After that we did our English test, oral and written and we had free time to drink or eat something. Then we did a kind of oral presentations with the English teachers. At 1 o'clock we had lunch to have energy to go to the pool of the University at 4 o'clock. It is amazing to have an olympic swimming pool in the University!! When we left the pool, it started to rain heavy but we had to go to have dinner at an University's restaurant. In this rsestaurant we had a nice meeting: we saw some of the italians that we met last year in Lancaster. Now we're going to do the evening activities, some quizs and some sports if the weather permits it to us. 

Nice to see you again and thanks for following us!

GETTING AT LIMERICK!

 Hello everybody, 

we are a group of students from Escola El Cim and Escola La Tecnos of Terrassa, and some other students from Viladecavalls and Barcelona. We are staying at the University of Limerick for a 2-weeks English course together with our teachers, Montse and Sílvia.

Today it's been the first day of our trip.
After saying goodbye to our families at Barcelona's airport, we took a good flight to Dublin and then we had a 3-hours journey to Limerick by bus.
When we got off the bus, we could feel the typical Irish weather: rain, wind and quite low temperatures compared to the hot weather we were used to in our home town.

Elaine, our MLI coordinator, was waiting for us. She showed us our accomodation appartments and she explained us a few things. We were amazed: each room has a bathroom and each appartment has an office kitchen with a wide dining and living room area!
Then we got our pack dinner (some salad, some pasta and a sandwich) and we walked to the main building to watch a movie.

Well, that's all for today, we are a bit tired and we need to rest.

Here you can see some pictures!
