Inishmore

On March 26th-27th we had our trip to Inishmore, the largest of the Aran Islands. We took a bus to Doolin and then from there got a ferry to Inishmore. The weather was so perfect for the two days we were there--nice and sunny!! There wasn't too much to do besides sight see so that's basically what everyone did for two days. The first day almost everyone went and rented bikes and rode around the island. We saw an awesome, old lighthouse, touched some anemones and hermit crabs, and saw some seals!! I was pretty sure I was gonna die by the end of the day since I'm so out of shape and riding that bike up and down hilly roads was exhausting...but here I am alive and well! Since we did most of the sightseeing on the first day there wasn't a whole lot to do on the second day, so a few of us watched a movie at the hostel (Pirates of the Caribbean! oh yeah!) and then laid around and read, it was so relaxing. We were lounging outside the hostel which is right on the coast of the island and soaked up some sun. Overall, it was a great weekend!

Here are some photo from the trip. I actually didn't take any with my own digital camera cause I was hauling my film camera with me everywhere and didn't feel like carrying both so these photos are all thanks to Caitlin O'Brien and Meghann Altomare!!

Ferry ride home. Shleepy shleepy.

This is just a random photo of what we do at school.

This photo is actually from a few weeks ago on the Irish studies trip

when we went to Yeats' Tower, but I stole it from Caitlin and it's cute

so I though I'd put it up.

And that's all for now. Right now, (school-wise) we're all focusing on our final exhibitions, finishing up projects, and figuring out what stuff we're going to be showing and where we'll be showing it. I'll make sure to take photos of my studio when all my stuff is up!! =]
