4th class tour of Dalkey Castle -Ms.Keyes

Today we went on a trip to Dalkey Castle. We got a tour of the castle and learned about murder holes, feasts and life during the Norman times. When we were in the old church, a slave that had escaped from Dalkey island ran in and gave us a fright but we gave him sanctuary and then he was free! We had great fun and learned a lot!

We went up on the roof of the castle. It was a fantastic look-out for enemies coming in from the sea or the hills!

This man was a doctor, barber and a dentist!

Good thing all our teeth are in good shape, otherwise they would have been yanked out!

We made our own coins we could use to barter for other items.
