Dublin's tourist sites

So, remember when I said it was sunny? 
That was then, this is now. 
And PS, no one walks around with an umbrella here. The rain drops are tiny, and after I ruined my first umbrella in the first ten minutes of being outside, I understood the way of the locals. 
But I still love it here, as no rain ever lasts that long, and wont stop me from going about my day. 

First, I saw another old friend :) 



Although it was rainy, I managed to see the beautiful ChristChurch Cathedral, 


and the Chester Beatty Library, which is really just an Asian exhibit with no books. But it had a lovely garden :) 


And hey look, there's me!


I also saw some less-exciting sights like the National Gallery (for art lovers only) and the Museum of Archaeology. But upon entering the National Library, I was surprised and relieved to actually see some books. 

I picked up some fish n chips along the way; the staple for any Irish lass.


And no better place to get them, than here:




So, no beer today, but I visited Dublin Castle, sight of the famed Michael Collins victory after kickin out the Brits. 


Check back next week for more, shabbat shalom y'all!
