Croagh Patrick and Dublin


Before leaving western Ireland, we hiked Croagh Patrick, despite rain and wind.  This is the mountain St. Patrick hiked to fast and pray and source of the legendary driving the snakes out of Ireland.


What better way to celebrate St. Patrick than by drinking a beer!  Sláinte (cheers) from the Guinness brewery in Dublin.  Though we only had a day in Dublin, it was a fun day between the brewery tour, national gallery, and a musical pub crawl celebrating "Trad", Irish traditional music.
