As everything came to and end today I started to think
back to all the memories made. From kissing the Blarney Stone to almost getting
lost trying to find James Joyce's house ( Dr. Aliaga knew the way the whole
time just didn't let us know that) everyday in Ireland was a blessing. These
past 12 days were an experience I will never forget. 19 associates became
friends and will forever share these memories even the ones not in the
itinerary like staying up late and playing cards and sharing funny stories from
the day or previous days.
Today we had a free day and most of us went and saw St
Patrick's Cathedral and James Joyce's house and then the rest took a kayaking
tour on the river. We all managed to find time to shop though before we met for
one final dinner and shared favorite parts of the trip and what we will miss
the most.
The group then surprised me with a card for my
birthday. It was hard being away from my family on my birthday but in a way
this group became a sort of family. The end not only brought me knowledge and
memories but a new set of friends who I will forever share my time in Ireland
with.
