Have you heard of Waterford Crystal?  Have you held Waterford Crystal in your hands?  Have you been in their factory?  We can now answer “yes” to all these questions, as the pictures below show.

The factory tour cost money and we were more interested in looking, so we just looked at the showroom.  I didn’t take many pictures because I was so focused on the intricate details of some of these creations.  There was a crystal globe on sale for several thousand euros, an enormous chandelier (about 10 times the size of the one pictured below) on sale for who knows how much, and even salt and pepper shakers for a few coins.

On the way back to Horse and Jockey Sunday night we stopped in a small town for something to eat.  We ran into some young hooligans and asked them for a good place for Fish ‘n Chips.  They led us down a dark alley to the least Irish establishment I’ve seen in the last two months.  It reminded me of Chuck E. Cheese’s from long ago.  After some fish we headed back to the hotel.
