We are pretty exhausted after a 16 day trip, but with the beauty of Ireland, we could easily stay longer.  What a lovely bunch of people we have met here.  We already left a part of our hearts in Paris;  now we will leave part of our hearts in Ireland.  We began the day with  a visit ti St. Patricks Cathedral which is the largest in Ireland.  It is a gorgeous stone structure over 800 years old with any stained glass windows.

We walked in the Cathedral park and stopped by this marker of a well where St Patrick baptized many of the locals.

When we returned to the car, this car covered with grass was sitting behind us.  Don’t know any more than that.

 

We then visited Trinity College which houses so many bookshelves of manuscripts & books.  We were able to view the Book of Keel which is manuscripts over 1000 years old which scribes copied of the 4 Gospels onto vellum.

 

On our way back to the hotel,  we accidentally stopped at a park across from the zoo, and were able to feed several of the hundreds of deer.  That was a wonderful experience.
