Northern Ireland Day 4 2008

After our black taxi tour, Kathy and I had tea t Marks & Spenser where we also used the 2007 award winning “Loo of the Year.”
Heavy rain followed us on our way back to Dublin. At our Monasterboise stop, a monastery founded by Systersian Monks, we marveled at all the huge Celtic crosses. The monks chose this peaceful valley to prevent looting and plundering by the Vikings.
In 432 AD St. Patrick arrived in Ireland and used the shamrock to teach people about “The Father, Son and Holy Ghost.”
Back in Dublin, we walked along the Liffey River to see a Sculpture of The Potato Famine People.
