Day Two – First Day in Dublin

Dragged out of bed slowly today. Managed coffee, but really didn’t get moving until noon. We started our walking tour and had lunch at an uninspired vegetarian Indian restaurant called Govindas. Aaron and Linda had a more favorable opinion than mine. You will note we will do very little in the way of Irish food while in Dublin, anticipating less food variety once we hit the countryside.

We walked around town and ended up at Trinity College where the famous book of Kells is kept as well as the spectacular Long Hall packed two stories high on both sides of the room with incredibly ancient books.

Shannon and Linda somehow squeezed in some shopping and then we had no energy to look for food, so we had pub grub for supper. Shannons supper was notable. She had the 3 piggy sub with no less than ham, rashers (bacon) and bangers (sausage). This all covered with cheese. And they say Americans eat poorly.

We walked back to the apartment and crashed immediately.
