Heidelberg blog!

So I realized that the website for this includes the word "London", and since I don't live there anymore, I decided to just create a new blog. So the link to my new Heidelberg blog is:
http://sarahrebeccaingermany.blogspot.com/

I haven't added any posts yet, because I've been pretty busy with unpacking, going to orientation, starting classes, and trying to remember how to sprechen sie deutch. But at soon as I get some pictures I will be sure to post them!

Love,
-Sarah

O Ireland!

Here are a few pictures from the trip I took to Dublin, Ireland a couple weeks ago!!


On Friday, we walked around Dublin. We saw Christ Church Cathedral and the Dublin Castle (which actually shouldn't be considered a castle...). We strolled through the Temple Bar area. Then, that night we had dinner followed by a show, with Irish music and dancing!
Saturday, we took a tour of the Irish countryside. We visited lakes and waterfalls, and a few little villages. When we got back, we were miraculously able to meet up with a couple of friends from the Switzerland program!

The Millenium Spire (no one knows what the point is)





It was very very windy!
