Thursday

Today work really started. I left home at 12 with the husband to the park. We talked a bit on the road about his work and about my family and my future.
When we arrived at the park he taught me how to set everything up.
Then the work truly started.
I stood around from 2 to 8 with small breaks, talking to people, giving them information and advertising the dome in general.
I ate some chicken, broccoli and roasted potato for lunch and some bread rolls for dinner. I also cleared the path of water a couple of times because it rained a couple of times. The weather in Ireland is a lot more changeable than that in the Netherlands.
I also had to wear a Christmas hat and there were elves walking around the whole day. I am still not really in Christmas mood and these things are getting me more out of it than in it. Christmas is not something for me.

I learnt that the Irish are a lot less direct than the Dutch. In the Netherlands if we have questions, we will approach the people standing with it, but here we need to approach them.
