Long Room

My book group is having its second annual outing. Last year we went to Madrid in search of Velasquez, this year we have come to Dublin for all things literary.

Our visit got off to a most enjoyable start by spending an afternoon with archivists and librarians from Trinity College Dublin including a visit to the Long Room. The Book of Kelks wasn't there but we saw fascilimies and many other interesting artefacts.

Our visit ended with drinks in staff common room bar which is a treat in itself (https://www.dublininquirer.com/2017/08/02/hidden-away-at-trinity-a-replica-of-an-austro-hungarian-speakeasy)

A grand start to the weekend.
