Rainy Days and Tuesdays

Well, today was supposed to be our free day to get oriented to the city.  We had planned to take the Dublin City Bus Tour.  But it rained 'cats and dogs' until about the middle of the afternoon.  After that, it didn't stop raining; it just lightened up a bit.  So, Kathy and I spent the early part of the day preparing some materials for our orientation meetings with the MTW Interns, who arrive on May 31.  Finally, at about 2:30 PM we joined a group of four other tourists on the bus who had braved the elements to see the sights.  (The photo above is the view out the rain-dotted window of the Guinness Brewery lounge that looks out over the entire city of Dublin.)  Then it was back to "number 5" for dinner and more preparations. 

By the way, the forecast for tomorrow is for (you guessed it)...rain.
