5th Class School Tour to Craggaunowen and Bunratty Castle

On Thursday I had to wake up at 7AM because we were leaving for our school tour at 7:45AM. The first place we went to was Craggaunowen to see the Crannogs. We also learned about the Celts. While we were there we saw St. Brendan’s boat. I didn’t know who he was until I found out he went on a voyage over the Atlantic and he was the first person to get to America. Afterwards we went to Bunratty Castle. I learnt about all the families that owned the castle. I’m terrified of heights and just my luck we were going to the top. We also went to a folk village and saw a bull and 2 other bulls. One was black and the others were white. We left Bunratty to go to the Crescent Shopping Centre. But before we went to the Shopping Centre we went to Mc Donald’s. I got a 9-nugget meal with a sprite and BBQ sauce. Now we are going to the Shopping Centre. In the Shopping Centre I only bought a packet of match attacks. It was very fun and we got back around 6 o’clock. I had a great day.
