cuteness

Well, this has nothing to do with Ireland, but I came accross these and couldn't resist posting them. They're probably not that exciting to anyone else, but I just have this thing about hats; they make me happy. One day, I'll wear hats just whenever I feel like it.
Other than this, today has been another great weather day, with wind and some highlights:
- It was very nice to be outdoors with the girls doing a scavenger hunt in the sun.
-I taught a lesson on the digestive system. It was really funny how most girls wouldn't even look at the diagram (so "delicate" for what they choose to be... they make me laugh) but, eventually, they got to look and follow the route of an apple in the body diagram.
- We did and experiment with wool and a drawing that helped us realize that all guessings fell short. When girls measured the wool, they were shocked that our small intestines are around 9 metres long. Tomorrow more (I bet you they are excited to learn and draw parts).
- learnt at lunch time that school Mhuire, actually means school Mary
- talking to mum on the "skype phone" for almost two hours, also dad (today is father's day in Spain. Thanks for being the best dad I could ask for, papá. TQM al infinito) :)
- Back home, Jack, James and Sarah wanted to have their own scavenger hunt, so we prepared that and off they went. It took them less than 10 min to complete what girls did in 45 (boys...).
- I bumped into some girls from school at Aldi's. It seems every girl in school knows the "Spanish teachers." Some say 'hola, ¿cómo estás?' Others strike up conversations with you and insist that you get in front of them in the line to pay at Aldi's!
Love'em :-)
