Lunch and the churches
We found lunch at Duke's Pub just off of Grafton Street. They offered buffet style lunch. I wussed out and got a turkey sandwich. It was pretty expensive but you got a lot for your Euro. After that we bought some tourist junk at Carroll's. It was a shop full of Irish junk and I wanted to be sure I got my stuff there. Later I figured out they had more than half a dozen locations in Dublin, two of which I had passed on the way from my hotel. Sigh.

We walked several blocks to reach Christchurch Cathedral. It was quite beautiful and just what I was there to see, old stuff. We went inside and discovered that they wanted to charge us 5 Euro just for a look. I decided that if I was going to blow 5 Euro to look then I'd wait for St. Patrick's Cathedral. So here are your lovely exterior shots...
