Wow, we have been soooo busy these past few days. And yet, there is still so much to see! Yesterday we went to a really famous grave yard where all the famous Irish leaders are buried. It was huge! 
Here I am touching the casket of Daniel O'Connell,  leader of the Irish war for independence. He was the one who set up the whole place and conveniently his grave was in this shine building thing. lol. Kind of morbid... but sweet at the same time! 
Today we visited this huge garden called the Powerscourt. It was beautiful!

This is the GPO (post office), a rebel hotspot during the war. They kept all their weapons in the basement and they announced the declaration for independence in the front of this building.
