Kilmainham Goal!

we got a tour of the Gail!  so much history, the guide was a walking historian.  she went into details about the people who stayed there, how they got there, liberation fighters etc....it wasnt your typical tour.  we paid a bit more for the tour (which is not available to tour yourself) but it was worth it.  i loved that i was able to remember and understand the majority of the ppl she spoke about....thank you to my love of reading historical novels and paying attention to hostory class. haha
