As amateur stand-up comedian Paul O'Connell revealed on Tuesday, today was a "down day" for the Irish rugby squad as they were instructed to relax and unwind before facing Romania on Sunday.
As Paulie said, some of the backs went shopping, some players chilled out at the hotel, and some decided to go to Thrope Park, and thankfully SportsFile photographer Brendan Moran went with them.
A series of cracking photos have resulted of a trip that honestly looks like it was a load of fun.
Conor Murray, Keith Earls, Tadhg Furlong, Mike Ross and Jamie Heaslip take on Oblivion:
Tadhg Furlong fecking loves rollercoasters:

Magical.
Pure wonderment on the face of Conor Murray:
It looks like serious craic was had by all.
We're still waiting on the Ian Madigan/Kearney Bros. shopping trip pics to come through.
