IRELAND!

 Awesome Jameson chandelier in our hostel, definitely going to remake this

 beautiful church in Dublin

 bridge connecting two churches

 more pretty churches

 this is inside Dublin Castle, which is still used for government offices

 independence of Ireland

 hallway to the official offices

 chandelier again

 the panel next to the fireplace was originally used to shield women's faces from the heat because it would melt off their makeup, hence the term, "saving face"

 enormous throne

 what was once the great dining room

 ceiling of the Great Hall

 clock tower outside of the Dublin Castle

this was underneath the castle where they excavated to find original parts of the castle, you can still see remains of the walls that were bordered by moats

Fun start to the trip and next we were off to the Guinness Factory!
