Cahersiveen to Dublin

Long day on the coach from Cahersiveen to Dublin...intermittent rain...late for lunch...only 20 minutes of info/tour at Trinity College...not able to visit the library or see the Book of Kells due to time and a long queue...walked Grafton Street shops for an hour...now pool time for the kids at the hotel. Dublin looks neat...super busy...wish we could have seen more here!! Tomorrow we visit the Gaelic Athletic Association Museum then go to Belfast.
Trinity College
Today was a Commencement! We saw several gold and red PhD robes!

Bell Tower on campus from the 1400s! Legend has it if a student walks under the tower, they will be cursed in their studies for life and will never graduate. Our guide, a former student, has never walked under the tower and says she never will!
