Ireland- So Far...

Well so far... I have been to a safari park, kissed the Blarney stone, seen Waterford Crystal, camped with the Davies', cycled the camp site 20 times, been to Ikea, got a basket ball, got Sims 2 free time, saw National Treasure 2, read Breaking Dawn, settled in to my room, put all my possessions on a ferry, crossed to Ireland and I am now sitting in the van writing a this!

Because I have done quite a lot of things so far I will only tell you the good stuff like Carew Castle and Blarney. So after leaving Llandovery in our 30f RV we stopped over in Pembrokeshire with the Davies' which was v. fun (that was when I did 20 laps of the camp site). We went to Carew Castle and water mill, the site of which has been used for many generations going back to the Celts it was really nice there I learned lodes and I got an A on my essay on it.. We also went to Boshinton and Broadhaven Beach. Boshinton is this walk where there is a river next to it and it has all these lilly pads on it. We actually went there twice once with our cousins who came down one day which was lovely and then again with the Davies' witch was also great. After multiple sleepovers the Davies left and the weather left with them so, we deicide to splash out and go to blue lagoon for the afternoon. Blue Lagoon was fun but busy it being a massive indoor pool with slides on a rainy day.

After we left Wales we went to Tramor. Tramor was nice. We went to the beach and Tescos (a lot).Tescos is a fun place they sell everything you could ever want and you can go on to self service it it was fun. There isn't much else to say about Tramor we didn't really do much there so It was kinda boring, but 5 thumbs up to the Tescos, it was sooooo big and I showed mum how to use the self service. She was awesome at the scanning. We then moved on to Blarney. Now Blarney was more like it.

On the first day we went up to Blarney castle and me, Rhys and dad kissed the Blarney stone (yes I have the gift of the gab and yes Ed I kissed it for you so you to have the gift of the gab too). We also went round the grounds and we saw all of the witches stones and druids cauldrons and all that rubbish but it was good we found this tyre swing and I went green dad was spinning us soooooooooooooooooo much! We went back again on one of the last days where I did a sketch of the manor house I will try to scan it and post it up for you but I might not be able to straight away.

So far Ireland is so much fun. I will blog again soon, bye!

P.S did you know that the difference between glass and crystal is that crystal is 33% lead!
