Legend for Dublin Pics
Click here for pics
1. River Liffey
2. Dublinia and The Christ Church Cathedral
Dublinia is the building on the right. Here you can experience what Dublin was like in medieval times. Connected to the left is the Church. Just outside the church we met an old lady who had relatives living in Newfoundland.
3-6 St. Patrick's Cathedral
Yes, that St. Patrick. Jonathon Swift (author of Gulliver’s Travels) was dean here. It is also where his tomb is. Why the hell did I take 4 pics of this place?
7. Our Hostel
This is the only pic of the hostels we stayed in. It doesn’t really do a good job of representing the types of places we stayed in, but all beds we stayed in were bunks. Mine is the one on the bottom left.
8. Face Mask
Me trying on a mask at Dublinia. I also got to try on chain mail, but that was in London.
9. Punishment
Taken at Dublinia. In order to find out why the guy was locked up you had to throw objects at the guy’s head. I recall Ryan being unable to hit the guy’s head. I think I did it on my first try. Don’t ask what he said, it was gibberish.
10. Medieval Dublin
A scene of medieval Dublin at Dublinia.
11. Viking Inspirations
Part of the Dublinia exhibit was on Vikings. The sign tells us how Vikings have been a source of inspiration for literature and cinema. At the beginning of this exhibit I thought I was hearing Sam from Lord of the Rings screaming, and when I got to the end of the exhibit I noticed that they were playing The Return of the King trailer over and over, next to this sign.
12-14 Dublin
Different views of Dublin taken from the tower in Dublinia
15. Stairs
The stairs leading up to the tower in Dublinia
16 & 17 Sir Garrett
Just outside of Dublinia
18. On the way to the Guinness Storehouse
19. Guinness Storehouse
20. 9,000 year Lease
This is the 9,000 year lease that Arthur Guinness signed in 1759 for £45 per annum for the unused brewery.
21.Wall of Beer
22. Interactive Copper Barrel
23. Beer Barrel
24. ?
I’m not sure what it was but it’s at the Guinness storehouse.
25. Ryan and Guinness
Ryan doesn’t even like to drink any alcohol, but here is proof that I got him to try some.
26. Barrels
We watched an old school video on how these were made. It was really cool.
27. Gravity Bar
A view of Dublin from the Gravity Bar located at the top of the Guinness storehouse. Here you can get a 360 degree view of Dublin. The storehouse was no small building I’ll tell you that. It was 8 stories high. The gravity bar at the top is where you could drink a free pint of the dark stuff. I skipped out on the pint, but I did try the free samples. Didn’t like it, but then again I’m not a beer drinker.
28. The Brewery
This is the actually brewery, but it is closed to the public. The pic is taken from the gravity bar.
29. Amen!
30-34 Dublin Castle
The courtyard was the setting in which the film Michael Collins was shoot.
35. Trinity College
36 & 37. Cricket
A game of Cricket being held at Trinity College. I’d really love to learn how to play this game someday.
