Nothing special;)

Today has been a hard day for organizers, but a pretty relaxed one for students, I think: yes, there was the testing in the morning, but after it they could have fun while their works were being checked:

Then they were taken to classes - but only for a couple of hours. Then they were given time for lunch, then we were taken on a short tour around the centre:

Above you can see the Temple Bar street, and below -the half-penny bridge:

The girl wearing a yellow tee-shirt in the photo is one of the Yellow Shirts - the school staff responsible for social program. She is telling us about the sights. 

Next came the Spire - a monument of modern art, sort of))) it looks really impressive at some distance:

In the evening we were offered a "pub night" - going to a typical Irish pub. I must say that only 4 students of our group chose to attend, and even those were breaking the stereotypes about Russians who drink a lot: one didn't drink at all and the others just ordered a glass of Guiness to try it. After an hour they got tired of the bar atmosphere and decided to look for a place with music and to dance. 

Breaking stereotypes: Russian Choice on a Pub Night)))))))):

Tomorrow there will be the first real day of studies for us. So far everyone liked the groups and the teachers.

Очень краткое содержание (потому что спать хочу!))):

Нас протестировали, рассказали, что к чему и всех распределили по группам. Провели одно большое занятие, завтра уже все наберет обороты. Провели по центру города, показали и рассказали кое-что. Вечером в бар пошли - но и там все пристойно было;)

Завтра снова всех пересчитаю))))))
