The dormitories are empty, the quad is quiet and the
dining hall is closed!
Dublin School is on Winter Break!
Last night we attended our Head's Christmas party, and
I made a vegetable curry pizza. It was quite good, but
the best part was the 2-3 trays of sushi on the table
along with some dim sum from Boston.
We're putting together our plans for Christmas and
we're hoping to attend a Christmas Eve service at
the Dublin town church to sing carols and hear what
is largely a non-denominational sermon.
Anyone who knows me well will be quite surprised that
Erin is going to get me inside a church, but it's a New England
tradition and the church is beautiful.
I didn't know this, but apparently Christmas has a
religious origin and it's not just about giving and
receiving gifts. Who knew? We're learning
all kinds of crazy things in New England.
Maybe I'll bust out a dreidel and some
matzoh ball soup in the pew.
(And who knows? There might be cookies and cider.)
You can check out a webcam of the town square,and
