Snow in Dublin!!!

Just kidding - but it was really cold. The past few days we took some time away from our studies to do a quick tour of historic Dublin, Ireland. Dublin is a city rich in culture and charm. We stayed at Trinity College which was founded in 1592, and which is the oldest university in Ireland. It is certainly recommended at a reasonable price. We can really say we did all that Dublin has to offer...and we even found some time to squeak in a pint or two of Guinness and some Irish stew. Below are some pics from our trip...

p.s.: We are off to Amsterdam tomorrow, so stay tuned.

State Ballroom at Dublin Castle. Ladies would wait for men to ask them to dance here...

''Lady Justice'' looking over Dublin Castle. Notice that she is not blind folded. Rumors have it that the Canadian government have taken a liking to this statue, and have ordered all blindfolds removed from similar ones in Canada.
