Thursday, our post was Dun Laoghaire which is a suburb of Dublin, Ireland.
My excursion was "The Guinness Experience" . We had a driving tour of some of the highlights of Dublin then headed to the Guinness Workhouse Museum. The first thing we was was a copy of the 9000 year lease (at £45 / year) that Arthur Guinness signed in 1759 for the location at St. James Gate in Dublin. Store Storehouse museum is 1 7 story structure that shows the history and processes used in make Guinness beer.
