I'm not sure about internet access over the rest of the trip, so this might be my last post. I am so happy that I was able to have this experience. I've learned about education, sure, but I've also learned a lot about myself. Maybe not all of it great, but things that I can take with me to become better.

The best part was probably (nerdy as it sounds) the lectures. We truly got to meet and learn from some of the best, and their passion is something I hope to emulate. I'm including the tours as part of the lectures because those, too, were part of the learning process. I feel like it was an entire cultural experience, and probably even more than I was expecting.

If I can post from Kilkenny, Wexford, Wicklow, and/or Dublin, I will. We're staying at one of the most famous hotels in Dublin thanks to Sarah's reward points, so I'll let you know if there are any celebrity sightings.

Looking forward to my last few days on the old sod.
