Ireland Vacation

We arrived in Dublin at 5am. We found our rental car and headed out to our hotel. Luckily it was early Sunday morning and there was little traffic. Alan and I both had to concentrate and really think about driving on the left hand side of the road. We made it to our hotel with only one wrong turn. The hotel had availability and let us check in early. It was great to sleep and shower before going into town. We started our day at the Guinness Brewery. We learned about the brewing process and even got to pour our own pint.

Next we went to Trinity College to see the Book of Kells. This early Irish Bible dates back to 800 AD. Wow. It was beautiful. We finished our evening with a couple pints and live Irish music.

It was a great but exhausting day. Tomorrow we are off to the Western coast of Ireland in County Mayo.
