The last day

Today was cool. when we woke up, we had a quick breakfast and set out on the way to Dublin Castle. It was really cool. When the castle was first built, it had a big gun powder tower. the castle later burned down, and was rebuilt as a courthouse and manor. It is now used to inaugurate irelands president. after this we visited Saint Patrick's Cathedral. Really cool stain glass windows, and a nice monument to the great saint himself. Next we took a bus to the coolest place yet, the Kilmainham Jail. Apparently, many of the famous leaders of the Irish rebelions were kept and executed there. Really interesting. Hope this blog kept you interested in our trip!!
