This weekend was another adventure in the land of the Irish. It began with my Friday history class where we walked around downtown to some of the historic buildings in Dublin including my first castle! We walked around for a few hours soaking up all the history before us. The day ended with a pregame at my place with some new German friends we met earlier in the week. We went to the pubs and danced in the streets outside of Temple Bar listening to some locals sing and play the guitar.
On Saturday we woke up and started with are on off tour of Dublin city that was prepaid by KEI. We got to see all the parks, major streets, the presidents house, Phoenix park, the train station, Dublin prison, and much more. We went into the Old Jameson Distillery on Bow Street. Even though I have never particularly liked whiskey, I got the chance to taste some of Ireland's finest Irish whiskeys.

Today we decided to tour Dublin's Prison named Kilmainham Gaol. The Gaol is rich with history having detained leaders of 5 different Irish rebellions between 1798 and 1916 within its walls. I captured some truly amazing photos of the prison. This was the first time I have ever been in a prison and I have to say I loved the eerie feeling. |
