Historical Dublin

In the past two days, Bill & I toured various sites, including (but not limited to):
Kilmainham Goal (Ireland's historic Jail), 



Trinity College & their Book of Kells (photo of Trinity College, no photos allowed of the Book of Kells),



and Dublin Castle.  



We have learned a lot about Ireland's troubled past, and feel that although the Irish (at least those we've met) are proud of their country & heritage, under the surface their feelings of "the troubles" still seem very raw.
