This week I elected not to go on the field trip with Dr. Norwood's other class. They went to Heidelburg. I thought it sounded interesting, but I really didn't feel like getting up extra-early and being on the trains all day. So I took this day to relax, do laundry, call my parents, and just get ready for Dublin. I'm glad that I didn't go because I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have had any clean clothes to pack. Also, my foot was really hurting today, and then it was raining pretty heavily when they got back to the Schwä. Even though it would have been nice to go on a trip, I think I needed this downtime to psych myself up for Dublin.
