I was visiting Ireland for eye surgery and had Kilmainham Gaol on my bucket list of places to see. You can almost feel the presence of spirits wandering around inside the jail.

Seeing the doors and the padlocks is one thing. Seeing the peepholes and looking through them, is another. It gives you a feeling of desperation locked away. There was still a ghost of a smell of raw sweat, base trepidation and abject fear in the air.
Or, it was all just in my own mind.
