Sleepless night and sleepy day

Chris slept really poorly, constantly woken up by randoms arriving back and making noise so when we both got up at 6.30 and left, making a small amount of noise as we did, it brought a little satisfaction back for Chris.
Power walked to the train and caught it without a problem, first class is not that impressive though, basically the same as standard class just a bit bigger, at least my shoulders fit in the seat! Managed to catch a bit of sleep for 2 stops in a mostly empty train until suddenly loads of people piled onto the train with babies etc.

Got a phone call as we arrived and Eamon had brought the car to come and drive us back, a welcome relief from the walk back, and made a bit up for the crazy call back.

Made it back and after some food had a siesta before relaxing in the room for a bit.

Found out a bit more of what we have to do, tomorrow evening we have to introduce ourselves to the students, (around 50 in 2 classes) and tell them a bit about ourselves. 
The next 3 days we have 2 classes a day to improve their spoken English along with their listening, we also need to think of some games to play with the students and other ways to improve their English skills for a national competition.

The worst part is that as of 2 hours ago I started to develop a horrible cold, great timing for a first impression! Hopefully it will die down overnight.

I will upload some photos now from the last few days!
