Ireland is so totally amazing. The fields and everything are SO green. They look like emeralds. Everyone's pretty jet lagged, though. We're all weirded out that our Monday only had 16 hours. Oh, well. Our hotel is a gothic architecture, about a 40 minute walk from downtown Killarney. Nicole, Melissa, Jennifer Falkoski, Kirsten Rue and I went to look through these ruins that are right by the hotel. Then we walked into Killarney. They exchanged their money (I already had) and we went shopping. Didn't really buy anything other than postcards. On the way from Shannon (where we landed) we stopped in a town called . I got mom and Charlie's presents there. I'm getting the hang of this money system. We rode in a buggy drawn by horses back from town. That was REALLY fun. Ireland is one of the prettiest places I have ever seen. It reminds me of a place out of a fairy tale. I'm going leprechaun looking tomorrow... There's a group of 4 girls from Washington state that are with us. Haven't said much to us though.
