Today we got tickets to go visit Kilmainham Gaol is a former prison in Kilmainham at 10AM. We caught a bus from downtown then Andre wanted to walk through a garden/park for the last couple of KM. Well, garden/park is locked, starting today on a great foot!
We loved this tour, it was recommended by Gilles and John and so glad we did it. Our guide was fantastic, lots of interesting stories and Irish history.

After our prison tour we were able to tour the park that was closed on the way here. Beautiful English gardens, lots of people out walking their dogs, or spending family time

We walked back to the city core. Had a quick stop at Guiness Storehouse to check it out, didn't purchase any tours.

We had purchased 4 tickets to Riverdance 25 anniversary for Sue and Roger, managed so sell them on the street for original price of ticket, we were lucky it was sold out. We really enjoyed the show
