Croke Park.

Today we went to Croke park to see the GAA m museum. We left school at 12 and it was a really fun and packed day. We started off by getting show a video and it show us what happens in the stadium before a match is played. It also showed us all of the different people that are involved in the different things in the stadium. After we were shown the video we went out under where all of the seats are and we were shown different things and told about them all.

We went into some of the different places like the dressing rooms and the players’ lounge and where the players would go to physic and where they would warm up and things like that. It was pretty cool if you ask me. The players’ lounge was amazing. Once we had a bit of a look around in there and we all got nicer and warm and found cosy seats we were told about the history of the GA. What better way to be told history the on nice seats in a lovely warm room.

One we had done that we then went to see the stadium we went out to the grass. We got to walk through the tunnel that the players walk through when they are going out onto the pitch. That was pretty cool too. Once we had took some photos a few people whet up to where the winning team receives the trophies and held up a bottle of water as if it was a trophy.

Then we sat where the president sits when she is at a game and we got talked to for a few minutes there before went went up even higher in the stadium. We went up three different escalators. And well the floor after the escalators well I didn’t like them very much and neither did Kellie. Once we got up I finally convince Kellie to go up a bit higher even though she was scared of heights she still managed to go it. Not to the very top but we got up a bit higher. And well it was scary but the view was amazing. I just want to say sorry to Kellie again for making her go up as I didn’t  realise that she was so scared she was holding on to her chair but it was fun all the same.

After we did that we went into one of the boxes and that was pretty cool. Me and Kellie found the radiator so we were happy. That was then end of the tour then but then we got to go back down the escalators. I hate escalators especially going down. I had to be the last one to go down because I hate going down on them so much. We got to go look at different things in the museum like photos and stuff. After that we were allowed to look around and play some of the games ourselves and go to the cafe before meeting up to get back on the bus to go home.

It was a really good day over all and I think that everybody really enjoyed it . I know that I did.
