Hello!

Today I went into the city center and was able to see the different shops. It is pretty busy in the city but I love it! There are so many shops... and we all know how much I love shopping! I ventured into the English Market  to see what it was all about. It was a totally new experiences; there was fresh produce everywhere (fruit, vegetables, fish and meat). You could even eat at some of counters there! I know this is going to sound very cliche but it looked like something out of the movies. I didn't have my camera with me today while I was shopping so I will have to bring it next time and take some photos of the market and city center.  I spoke with my landlady today about different places to see in Ireland and I think I might plan a trip to Killarney, she said that it is absolutely beautiful there and its only a 30 minute bus ride from Cork.

I walked around the UCC campus some more today because the weather was lovely. I took some really nice pictures of the campus that I will put up in this post for everyone to see. I was also told that there is a marathon held in the city on Monday because of the bank holiday and the runners will pass down the Mardyke where my apartment is located so I think I'm going to go out to see it.


Love from Cork...

This is one of the main buildings of UCC campus from the back
side of the building.

This is one of the views from my apartment window!

The same building as above but from the front.

This is a bridge that is just outside the UCC campus gates.
