Today we played some Irish games called gaelic football and hurling. Gaelic football was not my thing! I learned how to dribble and kick the ball and also the rules. It is a mixture of football and soccer. Hurling is a lot like tennis and field hockey. I loved it. After we played some hand ball then learned an irish dance which was also very fun. I miss home but I wish we could stay longer.
