A look back with pictures 8-12-15

After two days of travel (losing 6 hours in time zones) we arrived at our hotel in Dublin on Tuesday evening.  Wednesday morning we joined the remainder of our tour group for a tour of Dublin's fair city.with a visit to the Trinity College old library to see the 9th century Book of Kell with its delicate paintings, no pictures allowed.  Also the Long Room where 200,000 of the Library's oldest books are housed.  Then it was a tour of the Guinness brewery with a sampling.  That evening we were taken to an Irish Cabaret show with Irish music and dancing.
