Written by Kimsie Hall

We went to Cork today and toured the whole city. Our tour guide's name was John. Cork was a very interesting city. We saw things that we never thought we would see (at least not any time soon). The city had a beautiful cathedral that was covered in statues and each set of statues represented a different story. Some of the girls bought neon nail polish and painted our toes; it was very cute. We went to the beach in the evening and took thousands of pictures once again.

On our way back from Cork, we had a wonderful concert on the bus for the chaperones. We sang many different tunes for them and they were "amazing" of course. [Editor's note: the girls had a great time singing several songs that didn't appear in the tour repertoire, but it was a little distressing to learn that none of them actually knew the words to "YMCA"…] Thank you for sending us on our trip, we're having a great time and loving it. By the way, I don't think that any of us will want to see beef, turkey, or potatoes for a while.
