"we need one of these in Clear Lake"

Day 32 (Day 2) - on Monday, we didn't get out of bed until noon (thank you, jet lag!)


we started the day with some bangers & mash!


mom liked it, so that was a success.

after lunch, i took mom to Dublin Castle.












then we played in the castle gardens...







someone that was working one of the exhibits at the library told my mother that she had a Texas accent

(which is false)

mom was very excited ha




after the library, we booked it to Trinity College to see the Book of Kells before the exhibit closed for the day.

we made it just in time, but we didn't quite make it to St. Patrick's Cathedral in time...




so we just took pictures and enjoyed it from the outside.

for the rest of the day, we wandered around Dublin, checking out the city.






for dinner, i took mom to the Arlington Hotel to see the show that we watched at our farewell dinner.

we split the fish&chips. hands down best chips i've had in Dublin.

the show was entertaining (even for the second time)

Irish coffee anyone?





it was my very last night in Dublin, so we went to The Porter House for one more Strawberry Beer and some live music...

Andrew Mann sang Brown-Eyed Girl to mom - even though the rest of the band refused to play it :)



when the music was over, i took mom back to the hotel and then met up with Andrew.

we went to Lillies for a drink. on the way in, we saw SLASH from Guns&Roses. incredible.

it wasn't Bono, but i guess celebs really do hang out at that place haha

it was a loooong day of sight-seeing and a great last night in Dublin City.
