Day 9, 29 May 2018

As we approach the waning days of our trip to Ireland, we come full-circle in regards to art work.  From our first day at Lough Crew where we saw 5,000 year old rock carvings to today's visit to the murals of Bogside depicting the 1972 protest where of 13 men and boys died in the Bloody Sunday massacre, art is used to express human emotion and document history.  As you write today's blog, reflect on the history of Ireland and how it lead to these events as well as the role of art in human history.
