The photos are gone unfortunately. Something about our wordpress install. Which brings me to TommyMs post :-) sorry for the delay in replying, yes Wordpress is good, apart from when you loose your photos, but thats probably more down to problems on our hosting than Wordpress, we've changed to hosting our pics on flickr and other sites. I personally use Wordpress on two other blogs and highly recommend it. Thanks, links work now. The photos are gone unfortunately. Something about our wordpress install.

So many interesting things to see! Well infact too many, we tried to see it all in one day and to be honest it was far to much! Much better if you break it up into 1.5 days. Museum is free which is great, guided tour is a bit lame, didn't really go into the history of the building, would really liked to have learned more! Coffee shop has beautiful food but is very expensive! Really easy to get to as the luas stops right outside! A great day out!

It's not very big and just seems to serve light snacks and coffee. Declan Hi Di,
