Dublin Day Four - The Book of Kells

On our fourth day in Dublin we had our usual wonderful traditional breakfast at the hotel and then we took the tram over to Trinity College to go check out the Book of Kells and of course the Library. We had vouchers for the Book of Kells and after waiting in a line for a while we got to see it or at least a few pages from it. The display was an interesting exhibit but the object itself, the book, was a little underwhelming and a lot of what was going on there was very touristy.

The Trinity College Library was spectacular and well worth the trip. It was also fascinating to see the Harry Potter references. It felt like a movie set but of course it was all real, totally unique, incredibly beautiful and very strange. We could have spent a lot of time in that library.
