4. Supermac's Window
5. 'Base Camp' window, Abbey Street
6. Italian Quarter/ Millennium Walkway
7. Millennium Bridge
8. _______________ (we got sidetracked looking for DIT Temple Bar)
9. Bar Pintxo
10. Dublin Castle/ Garda Station
11. The coach House
12. ______________ (not even the Dublin castle security man knew this one)

As much fun as it was traipsing around in the cold and the rain, we've decided that for our next bonding excercise you throw us 100euro and send us off to the Kings Inn!
