First day in Ireland consisted of everyone meeting at the hotel and getting accommodated to the time zone. No riding today, just hotel, sightseeing, Jameson whiskey tasting, and some traditional music at the pub.

| The view from our hotel. |
 |
| Darkey Kelly's. My first pub in Ireland. Had a terrific lunch of ham and cheese and a beer. |
 |
| Just love how all the pubs were surrounded by flowers. This is the same is in England, but according to the taxi driver, the English stole that tradition from the Irish. |
 |
| Irish Red, nitro infused (not carbonated so much smoother). Delicious!!! |
 |
| Another view of the church across the street from the hotel; can't remember the name. |
 |
| Inside the church. Turns out, in Ireland, the main religion is Catholic. If you are Protistan, in your history somewhere, your family must have been aligned with the British empire (Irish don't like the British!) |
 |
| Always love the stained glass. |
 |
| Another great view, just happened upon while walking. No idea what this was, just saw it walking around, trying to fight the jet lag. |
 |
| Whiskey tasting. They were good, but I'm not a whiskey drinker. |
 |
| The Florida group minus Sarah and Vic. |
 |
| We finished the night back at Darkey Kelly's for traditional music. So much fun! |
