Ireland, Day 1: Dublin

September 8, 2007

We arrive in Dublin at 7 am. Matt at Trinity College

We are staying here in the dorms for 2 nights

This guy has a fun name: Wolfe Tone. He's an Irish revolutionary hero

The parks of St. Stephen's Green. Killing time before check-in

Lots of pretty flowers. We are running on very little sleep

Dublin has these fun symbols everywhere

Matt in front of Christ Church Cathedral

Handel practiced the Messiah on this organ in St. Michan's church

Under this church there is a crypt...

and in the crypt they have mummies! I touched the guy in the back

Irish revolutionaries are buried here (look, it's Wolfe Tone again)

Graveyard behind the church

Walking along the River Liffey

The pubs are decorated with tons of flowers

A pub in the Temple Bar area

We saw the Book of Kells; no pictures allowed :(

Then we were finally able to check in - here's our room!

It's cute and cheap AND in a good location :)

Lots of people out at night at Temple Bar
