Day 5

Slept in late today which was very nice. We then went to Newgrange burial site that was built about 1000 years before Stonehedge. It was absolutely mind boggling to see what the people back then were capable of building. Such an amazing experience. We then went into Donore and had a bite to eat at the supermarket and from there biked to the site of the Battle of the Boyne which was the biggest battle site in all of Ireland and England. The history that is here in Ireland is so incredible. It's lime being onside a history book and being able to go on amazing field trips every day! We probably walked about 1 mile today and biked about 8 miles. It was a gorgeous day although it did rain a bit on one day. But it pretty much rains at least once a day here so that's not too surprising. Oh and we had a very nice continental breakfast this morning!
