On Monday, August 22 we took our time getting going in the morning. We had breakfast at the hotel and then walked in different areas north of River Liffey.

Our first dinner

At 2:00 p.m. we met our walking tour in front of the historic Post Office on O’Connell St. The tour was on the south side of the river and we learned about Irish history and how things are currently.

After the 3 hour tour we went back to the Temple Bar area for an early dinner. We were beat and still suffering from jet lag. I certainly was anyway. I walked over 20,000 steps. When we got back to the hotel we had what was quickly becoming a part of the routine, a drink at the hotel bar.

Tomorrow we plan to see more and walk less.
