Well, at least it felt that way the last few days. We were delayed about four hours in the Cincinnati airport to get to Chicago (Saturday) which made us miss our Aer Lingus connection to Dublin by 40 minutes or so. The next flight out was the same time next day (Sunday) so the organization got us some hotel rooms in Chicago over night. We checked out at noon and sat at the airport a little while and our professors talked with us a little in our groups (there are three classes). We finally got on the flight to Dublin around 6:50 (Sunday) and then caught a connection flight to London Heathrow (Monday morning). We finally got to London as a group and took a bit of a bus (coach) tour. Most of us were sooo tired (I still have not slept since I woke up in Chicago at the hotel) that half the people took short naps on the coach. I passed out for maybe 5 mins but that was all. We got back here and finally did our orientation. Thankfully that was short! And then I had time to shower before dinner at 7. After dinner most of us went to a pub down the road and talked for a bit and now I am going to bed! I have class meeting in the morning at 10 am and it is currently 23:52 here. I will try my best to attach some pictures here.
Yay! It worked. This is out my window over Dublin/Ireland in general.

The lights here go red to yellow to green. Yellow to red too, but you can see the red fading to the yellow here.

One of the many pics I took on the bus tour. One of the few that turned out well.

Streets of London

Good night!
