Fiona. (This is Fiona saying hi!!) p.s. If you don't know I am one of Laura's friends.
Laura: We're going to do a commentary between us on our trip so far, so you will be hearing from both of us about our time here in Ireland.
Fiona: This is my house that was built by my grandparents. It is in county Donegal right next to the Atlantic Ocean.
Laura: We got here Saturday evening and after a nice dinner went to a local pub that Fiona's cousins own. We played a game of pool while the adults played darts. We also found a cute dog that just hangs around the pub, and I named it "Bubba."
Fiona: Later we played soccer or "football" outside in the back of the pub with 5 of my cousins.
Fiona: The next morning we had a lovely hike up to "the hut." It is a tiny, as you can guess, hut on top of a small mountain. My great grandfather built it.
Laura: There was an amazing view from the top of the mountain, and we played around inside the hut..
Fiona: Our last day was a fun one . First we went to this awesome castle. Then we came home and Laura, her mom and I went to this beach that we go to every time we go to Ireland called Murder Hole....DUN DUN DUUUN. Its name came from a long time ago when pirates came to stash their booty which they would fight for.
Laura: When we got there, I followed in the Dolan tradition of running down this huge sand hill at Murder Hole. It was a workout climbing up, but it was worth the run down.
Fiona: After the sand hill we went to these really cool caves.(And if you are wondering this beach is right down the street.) The caves were really big.
Laura: After the caves, we went in the waves and got soaked! The water was really cold. We made up a game where you have to jump when the waves come.
Fiona: After one more run down the sand hill, we walked home and on the way`met some friendly cows. We fed them and they let us pet them. From left, we named them: Boogy (because she had snot hanging out of her nose), Spotty (because she had spots), Sassy (because she was pushing the other cows), and Hungry, because she was the only one who was actually eating the grass that we gave her.
Laura: We had a really fun time with the Dolans in Ireland and I hope we can come back soon!
Fiona: Me too!
