DUBLIN, IRELAND


Hi Guys,


So we finally did some site seeing today. We went to Trinity college, which is located right in the city centre in Dublin. It is one of the oldest colleges in Dublin and it houses the book of Kells and other ancient documents. We took a few pictures of the buildings, but unfortunately flash photography was not permitted inside the exhibit. There was also this huge library filled with really old books, and they had a display of all these old detective novels.


They displayed all these famous Irish detective writers in history including the original Sherlock Holmes novels. It was really neat to see.
