| From July 18-23 1999, I attended the eleventh
International Congress on Radiation Research which was held at University
College Dublin, Ireland. Although the UCD campus is a short distance
outside of the city, my colleagues and I took full advantage of the opportunity
to explore Dublin in our free time, and after the congress ended I took
further advantage by renting a bicycle to explore more of the country.
Below is a map of Ireland with my route highlighted. From
Dublin I took a train to Galway and then a bus (stopping overnight in Doolin
to see the Cliffs of Moher) to Killarney where I rented a bicycle.
The original intent was to make it all of the way back to Dublin under
my own power but by the time I reached Kilkenny I decided that it was best
to finish the last bit by train in order to avoid the possibility of missing
the flight home.
The following pages provide a brief pictoral recounting of the journey.
