Most of the HC kids were out of the hostel by 6 AM. Luckily, we had a later flight, so we still had a full day of touring. It was Chelsea's birthday on Sunday, so we began the day by having a celebratory breakfast. I had another Dutch pancake, this time it was an apple and honey one. I am trying to bring the tastes of New England fall to Europe! Breakfast was super delicious, and a perfect start to the day.
The weather was pretty gross out--rainy and cold. This was a great opportunity to visit more museums. Jane and I went to the Ruks Museum, which is sort of like the MET of The Netherlands. We were there for two hours, but it felt like no time at all! I was so lost in the art, there were millions of beautiful pieces. My favorite exhibit was the photography one. I have grown such a liking for photography since being abroad, so it was really interesting to me!
After the museum and walking around for a little while, we headed back to the hostel to pick up our bags and head to the airport. The incredible weekend was coming to a close, unfortunately. However, a major perk of going home, we were flying into Cork! We were avoiding the three and a half bus ride, thank goodness!
We did not get home late at all, I think I walked into my apartment at 9:30. This was such a nice change!
My travels for the semester were officially done. I cannot believe it! I am so fortunate to have done all that I did. Including Ireland, I visited seven countries! It is a little mind boggling, I know. It'll be nice to have a weekend in Cork for the first time in forever.
Next trip, AMERICA!
Be back soon!
