The arrival of the Havhingsten fra Glendalough (The Sea Stallion of Glendalough) to Dublin Port, 14th August, 2007
The arrival was accompanied by a living history show, with members of groups from all over Ireland taking part.
The Sea Stallion arrives in Dublin.
Showing off! The captain decides to turn around.
The mast is dropped and sail is reefed.
Some of the crew.
More crew, waiting for the speeches to finish. Dylan ("Row, please!") is in the middle.
John Nicholl, Gael Agus Gall Chairperson, who sailed the last leg of the trip, and had a huge hand in organising the event.
Our very own Triona Nicholl, modest to the last, tries to hide from the media, with some success!
You never stood a chance! John and Julie Looney with their son Sebastian, who won the RTE 'Dress like a Viking' competition.
Security was tight on the day, but these two dodgy geezers still managed to slip through! Martin and Pete were part of the welcoming committee.
Eoin Donnelly, woodturner, from Enniscorthy, shows off his skill on the pole lathe.
Some of Padraig the scribe's wonderful work.
