What's a trip to Ireland if you don't go to the Guinness factory????

No prizes for guessing where we were...

The Guinness Harp.. apparently it is modeled off one that was around in the 1700's when the company started. This was a replica I think the real one is in a museum somewhere..

A water fountain in the factory....

We were supposed to write an ode to Guinness.. we decided to write a note home.. ours in the middle one on the bottom row..

At the end of the tour you got a free gunniess... this is Tim's one

This was also Tim's Guinness... I was hoping the tour might actually make me like Guinness but it didn't so I used my voucher to get a glass of Coke (Pete would be so proud!)...

This was a cool door we saw on a pub when we were walking around...

As I said it was a little bit windy on this day. This woman is posing for a picture her friend was taking, Tim pretended to take a picture of me while really taking a picture of her.

The Temple Bar district.... its the party area.... it had lots of dodgy shops and we had a VERY bad meal there.
