Dublin Whirlwind Tour

   We had a great, full day!  Trinity College and saw the Book of Kells and the library, National museum, St. Patrick's Cathedral, Christ Church Cathedral, Dublin Castle and the Chester Beatty Library and Gallery, and National Gallery.  We also walked around the Temple Bar area a bit.  Thankful for the beautiful weather that we had all day.  The boys even played at the park and we had a little picnic for dinner.
