+ Our wonderful Trafalgar tour of Ireland came to an end on Wednesday, September 21, 2022. On our way back to Dublin we stopped and boarded a boat for a delightful ride on the River Shannon. In Dublin we had some free time and went to the National Art Museum. Then we boarded the bus and went out to a fine restaurant where we enjoyed a farewell dinner with our travel mates. We stayed that night at the Clayton Hotel Dublin Airport and flew home on Thursday, September 22, 2022.
