Town

Wednesday we went into Limerick City.  We went shopping and to the Hunt Museum.  When we went shopping, I got a top with anchors and stripes on it.  My brother Simon got tons of rugby shirts.  Then we went to the Hunt Museum.  This museum was founded by Mr. and Mrs. John Hunt.  The museum is housed in the old Customs House, where sea captains would come to tell what goods they had and paid customs on them before they were allowed to sell them in Ireland.  The Hunt family donated their entire collection of rare artifacts.  We received a personal tour guided by a friend of my dad's family.
