Day 3: June 12, 2024
Back into Dublin this morning to meet Michael Deery, our local guide. He toured the group around the great city, finishing up with a trip into Trinity College to see the celebrated illuminated Christian manuscript of the Book of Kells. Then we broke for lunch, some staying in the city for a free afternoon, others coming out with us into the Wicklow Hills to visit Powerscourt Gardens with its celebrated landscaped gardens set against the backdrop of nearby Sugarloaf Mountain. Then back into Dublin for a pub dinner at the Merchants Arms, by the famous Halfpenny Bridge.
