So, from the hotel at Dun Loaghaire we wisely took the train into Dublin.

Started with an early bird ticket to the Guinness Brewery

with of course a sample in the panoramic bar

Then on to Kilmainham Gaol, only after lunch at The Patriot Inn

and then back to the Jamiesons distillery:

a visit to the decorative arts museum

…yes, you would never guess.. and then a walk round Dublin…for the best Guinnes in Dublin

Evening meal in the Hard Rock Cafe
