From the Museum website...

'EPIC The Irish Emigration Museum is an interactive journey that goes beyond the stereotypes to help you discover what it truly means to be Irish. You'll discover that what it means to be Irish expands far beyond the borders of Ireland through the stories of Irish emigrants who became scientists, politicians, poets, artists & even outlaws all over the world. Discover Ireland from the outside in & find out why saying “I’m Irish” is one of the biggest conversation starters, no matter where you are. Discover why over 10 million people left this island, where they went & what they brought with them. Uncover stories of adventure, adversity & triumph, as you engage with their personal stories & engage with history in 20 interactive galleries.'

We spent the day in Dublin, a visit to the Book of Kells and the old library at Trinity College, both spectacular and worthy of the main blip shot. BUT, The Epic Museum of Emigration was just so amazing that it had to be photo of our day. Interactive, informative and interesting beyond belief, we spent two hours there and could have stayed longer. This shot was taken by one of the staff as we stood in from of some Irish folk on the wall poster, some more famous than others.

We will revisit Dublin tomorrow and then return to Navan to pack up for our return home on Wednesday. Our hearts have been left on the West Coast, The Wild Atlantic Way. We will return. We’ve loved our traveling companions and the trip that Memories4ME has mapped out for us. It has been a wonderful introduction to this beautiful country, we will be back.

For the Record,
This day came in cool and sunny. We had a brief shower in the afternoon, followed by sun.

All hands happy and tired.
