This morning Trish (our resident Medievalist) brought everyone to see the Book of Kells, a 9th-century Gospel codex with some magnificent examples of Celtic illumination. A page from book is depicted here.
In the afternoon, some went to the Hill of Howth with Joe for the dramatic "cliff walk." The final pages of Ulysses are on the Hill, when Molly remembers her husband, Leopold, asking her to marry him.
Those who didn't go on the hike visited museums, etc. here in town.
Tomorrow is our last day--a day for students to choose what they want to do themselves.
