Here I sit in our room at the Days Hotel Dublin Airport. Tomorrow is a long day of travel (Dublin -> Frankfurt -> NYC -> Chicago) … oh it’ll be a hoot and a half, I can assure you!

We did some more touristy things today, like visit the Guinness Storehouse (kind of like a brewery tour, but not quite) where we once again sampled the Guinness North Star Brew (a special brew found only in Ireland), and enjoyed a pint at the Gravity Bar (an observation lounge atop the facility).

We shopped at Grafton Street, sampled some pints at a micro-brewery (very good stuff), and had some Malaysian for supper, before finally adjourning to the hotel.

I’ll be back to Ireland. Dublin’s great, but next time I’m focusing on the countryside.

Stateside tomorrow night!
