DUKW (3)

Viking Splash.

The DUKW was not really built to last ... but many, in fact, are still with us. Restored and modified, DUKWs are used to provide amphibious trips for tourists in a number of cities across the world. This is the "Balder", one of the DUKWs used in Dublin's Viking-themed "Vikiing Splash" fun tours. In the background is the main entrance to Trinity College (University of Dublin), one of our tourist magnets, home of the Book of Kells ... oh hold on; I'm not getting paid for this ... Just kidding, JR.
