Corey spent two glorious weeks in Ireland with 17 other students from WSU. They went to Northern Ireland, Listowel, County Kerry, and Dublin. I think she took over a thousand pictures, but I've tried to cull it down to just 150 or so below. They learned about the history, culture and environment of Ireland. Her favorite places they visited were the Giant's Causeway, the Rope Bridge, and Dublin Castle. She met a lot of very friendly Irish folks including the Mayor of Derry. She went to a lot of pubs and legally experienced alcohol. She decided she definitely does not like Guinness. She pet some lambs and giant Irish Wolfhounds. The food was wonderful, and she ate a lot of potatoes. Her favorite dessert was a Belgian waffle with a scoop of chocolate ice cream on top. It was the trip of a lifetime!
