The Ring Gaeltacht

As soon as I finished my Ethics final on Wednesday morning, summer had begun! It was my last test, and now junior year is over! After the final, Tom Keith took us on one last tour around County Waterford. This time, we went to the other side of the Dungarvan Bay- an area called the Ring Gaeltacht

This peninsula in the Dungarvan Bay is an all Irish speaking town. We toured their TV station, the College (and were welcomed with tea and scones!), the Famine Graveyard, and the peninsula itself. The views on our tour were beautiful! Endless green fields cover the hills which overlook the bay. Once we toured the area, we ended the night at a local pub called the Marine. Here, we had a delicious dinner of lamb stew and some Guinness  The owner even brought out his guitar and we all sang along to some Irish songs
