Day #5 - A Day in Dublin

Hola, amigos!  Today, as you probably guessed by the title, we went to Dublin!  Well, we were all tired at the beginning of the day because of the fact that we had to get out of bed fairly early.  We've been staying up late the past few nights because during the summer in Ireland, the sun doesn't set until after 10:00 at night!  But when we saw this, I woke up pretty darn quick.

An Irish Spider (We Named Him Fred)

After that thrilling experience, we headed over to the train station and took a train from Bray to Dublin.

Here's a picture of Jack having a blast on the train:

While in Dublin, we went to Trinity College.  It was very interesting, and the architecture was beautiful.

This was the line to see the Book of Kells.  Needless to say, we didn't join it.

After the college, we went shopping on Grafton Street.

We enjoyed watching the street performers, too.  Most of them were dressed up in funny costumes:

The "Statues"

The Horses, Leprechaun, Etc.

Also, Tim tried to make a "phone call" . . .

 . . . and we saw this lady!

You're probably thinking, "What's so bad about her?"  But look at those SHOES!

I don't even see how she can walk in those!

But anyway, I hope you liked reading about how our day went.  

Oh, and a BIG thanks to Ray for providing us with Internet connection.  This post couldn't have been brought to all of you lovely people out there without him!

Well, until next time . . .
