big red

On Friday, the International Education Department arranged for us to take a tour of Limerick City on a big, red, double-decker bus. I thought those were only in London, but I was wrong. I didn't make it early enough to get to sit on the top, but I didn't mind. I don't have too much to say but I've got some pictures to share!

The People's Park
It used to be a private park, only used by the people in the nearby neighborhoods but it was sold to the government with the stipulation that a certain amount of money was to be spent on it each year to maintain it.


 Georgian-style House


 A rather gloomy view of the River Shannon


 The Treaty Stone


 King John's Castle on the River Shannon 
(don't mind the camera flash)


 A view of Modern Limerick 
(as opposed to medieval Limerick, which is on the other side of the bridge)


 This one's for you, Daddy!


So pretty!!
