Today we said our goodbyes to the beautiful, rocky Aran islands.

We then took a bus ride with Rory and Jack, our expert guides, to Dublin. On the way, for the first time we had a "traditional Irish lunch" of Burger King, which made some of us feel like we had a little taste of home, whetting our appetites for actually going home tomorrow.

When we got to Dublin, we went to the Trinity College library and saw the book of Kells and ancient artifacts in the Museum of archaeology in Dublin.

Back at the hotel we had dinner at the hotel near the airport and after dinner there was an awesome drum workshop.

In a meeting after that we shared our final reflections as our 2016 pilgrimage to Ireland comes to a close.
