Today, we took the bus in front of our high school to go to Cherbourg. At the beginning, it was raining, but the trip was still nice. During the journey, we had time to eat and we made several breaks. It was a bit long but also enjoyable. In the evening, we arrived and settled in for the night. We put music in the bus, there was a party atmosphere !
We were like in a disco bus !!!!
Day 2: Monday 13/04 morning�Arsène/Titouan/Samy/Jérémie/Enzo
Honestly, the best part was the breakfast on the top deck. The weather was so good and we had this crazy view of the sea while eating. It was super chill to just sit there with the sun and the wind, definitely the best way to start the day before doing anything else.
Day 2: Monday 13/04 afternoon�Valentine/Camille B/Manel/Sharlize
We spent this afternoon on the ferry to join Dublin at 8:00pm. In the ferry, some of us slept, while others visited the boat or played together. The weather was cool: no clouds, the sun was out and there was a little wind. Then we took the bus to meet the families who will host us for the week.

Day 4 : Wednesday 15/04 morning�Ethan/Joshua/Corentin
This morning we took the bus to Belfast, the capital of Northern Ireland, part of the United Kingdom. A city with a rich history because of the Troubles. Traumatic events which leave their mark, such as walls that show the division and a lot of memorials or art pieces made to convey peace. So with three fantastic guides, we visited this very special city and it was truly a unique experience which was essential to our understanding of Ireland's history.
Day 4 : Wednesday 15/04 afternoon�Paul/Hacib/Constantin/Gabriel
This Wednesday afternoon, we visited the Titanic Museum in Belfast. This activity was very interesting and informative because it immersed us in the complete world of the Titanic, from its creation to the tragic day of the disaster and how it happened. The activities offered were very interactive, including a small ride that placed us in the life of a worker.

Day 5: Thursday 16/04 afternoon�Amaury/Léon/Edouard/Quentin
This afternoon, we visited the EPIC Museum ; this museum traces the history and influence of the Irish diaspora across the world. It consisted of 20 rooms, each with a stamp to collect in a booklet.
Next, we visited the Trinity College, a highly renowned university founded in 1592. We walked through a vast library lined with busts of famous scientists and philosophers and had the chance to admire the famous Book of Kells.

Day 6 : Friday 17/04 morning �Elisa/Mahé/Eva/Camille A/Léane
We were at the farm and we did a lot of fun activities : first we baked bread then we saw rabbits that we can hold cows goats donkeys horses. The weather was really great. Some of us got to play an irish instrument called the bodhrán.
Day 6 : Friday 17/04 afternoon�Hilal/Arthur/ Liam/Lilian �
In the afternoon, we first visited one of the haunted attractions in the farm. After that, we all learned a traditional Irish dance and it was really fun. Then, we all got in the tractor’s trailer and we went to a place full of mud, where a part of the students jumped. Finally, we ate the bread that we made in the morning.
After we visited the farm, we went to the beach but it was heavily raining so we didn’t stay for long.
Day 7 : Saturday 18/04 morning �Lou/Fatima/Selma M/Amel �
The families took us to the meeting point near the beach at 8 am, and we set off, feeling a bit wistful, on a four-hour bus ride to the port of Cork. We felt a mix of sadness which you can see on Suzi’s face because this trip had allowed us to meet new people. But we also felt relief because we were going to be reunited with our families. Then, at noon, we were able to eat the meals prepared by our host families before boarding the Brittany Ferries ferry.
Day 7 : Saturday 18/04 afternoon �Lyna/Anaëlle/Selma�
After boarding, we explored the boat and our cabins. It was better than the first boat.
At 5:30 p.m., we did karaoke and it was really fun!
Then we had dinner and got some free crêpes, which were very good.
Finally, we watched the sunset.
We also talked with Damien, the nurse on the boat. He showed us the medical room and explained his job.
Day 8 : Sunday 19/04 morning�Olivia/Clara/Ambre/Céline
It’s departure day. We got up at 5am to have breakfast on the boat. Then we arrived in Roscoff where we began our bus journey to Toulouse before stopping for a picnic.
