We flew from Chicago to Dublin on May 9, arriving in Ireland on the morning of May 10.
Although the airport in Dublin is only a few miles outside of the city, we could see sheep (of which we would eventually see many during the course of the trip) from the plane as we taxied to the terminal. After we passed through customs and immigration, we loaded up the bikes and headed the 8 miles or so into town.
After grabbing some lunch and a nap at our hotel, we headed off into Dublin to see the sights.
We came across an open courtyard at Trinity College, and spent some time there resting our feet and checking out the old buildings.
Of course, Hamilton took it upon himself to see what would be needed to disassemble the gate to one of the buildings.
Jenny took the opportunity to continue her work with Hamilton on not being freaked out by grass.
At least two of us remained awake to eat dinner at Wagamama (thanks to my coworker Kristin for the tip) that evening.
We then headed back to the hotel to head to bed for the night and get ready for our first real ride of the trip.
