St. Stephen`s Green Park

I have been in this park several times in my life here in Dublin, for better or for worse. Good, because there are few opportunities in my life, in Europe to learn about the cultura. Bad, because I had moments I wanted to give up everything, but I thought I won`t and realized that I have to take that beautiful moment in my life. That park is beyond beautiful and it is good to do picnic, run, play, take several photos and lie on the grass and visualize the beautiful landscape and therefore.

I really like this place.

20th June, Thursday

The class assignment was to find the sights of  Dublin and it was called a "treasure hunt".

To find the sights, we had to ask people on the street as we had no map or internet.
When addressing an Irish boy near temple bar, we asked "Please, where is Power Court Centre?"
He explained that we had to go up the alley.
We replied that we did not understand and asked to repeat, and that`s when he decided to take the group to the point requested.
On the way he asked, "Where are you from? and How long are you in Ireland?"
The boy was very attentive.
