SATURDAY IN DUBLIN

Last Saturday we went to Dublin. The weather was very nice. We walked a lot and were very tired at the end of the day but it was definitely worth it! Take a look at the pictures we took. We had a great day!

We started visiting the world reknown Trinity College.



The we went to O´Connel street and saw The Spire of Dublin, or Monument of Light, a stainless steel, pin-like monument, 121 metres in height.



 After that we went to the Georgia area of the city where we visited the James Joyce Centre. We learnt about the life and times of the famous XXth century Irish writer and his controversial work and writing style.








The we walked through town doing some shopping in O´Connell street...



... the Temple Bar area, with its trendy restaurants, shops and markets....


 .... and the group decided they would like to see Dublin´s Hard Rock Cafe, so we stopped there too!!



After a short break to have lunch, we went to the Guinness Storehouse. We were surprised by how big and modern it was! Seven floors of interactive displays about the Guinness production process, bars and restaurants and even live music!! And of course we got some souvenirs for friends and relatives.




We were really exhausted when we got back to the college but it was a great experience.
