As we began to wind our way east again to Dublin, we stopped at a whiskey distillery called Kilbeggan https://www.kilbegganwhiskey.com/ and learned about the whiskey making process (yes the tour did end with a wee tasting). I also bought some whiskey marmalade which I have yet to open.
We jumped back on the bus and arrived in Dublin in the afternoon and started our exploration of the city on board a hop-on-hop-off bus tour.
Mom and I managed to make it through a full 2.5 hour loop for an overview of the city.
Then we had dinner at a pub nearby called the Bleeding Horse.
