Confirmed our hotel for dublin last week, we are reserved at The Castle Hotel for two nights at the very end of our trip (http://www.castle-hotel.ie/). Dublin should be a great final chapter for voyage. I'm hoping to walk the grounds of Trinity College for a bit, see the Book of Kells, walk the bridges over the Liffey, take in some museums, enjoy some great food, and of course take a tour of the Guiness factory! Extended weather forcast looks iffy for the first week...high 50s low 60s but some rain is in the forecast. After more than a year of talking then planning, then actually booking this trip, it is amazing that the first leg happens in just 8 short days from now!
