Tuesday- renting the car

We took a cab to the  Hertz car rental on South Circular Road.  We checked in at the desk and the fellow behind the counter said that before he could give us our brand new Renault there were two important questions that must be asked. 

So Maureen said 'What colour is it? 

and the hertz guy asked 'What colour are your shoes?

The answer to both was black and the car was ours. 

we rented it for 10 days with the stipulation that the car be back by 1230 in the 10 day and full of gas. We asked if we could load up our luggage in to the car and leave it at the hertz lot until later as there was still a few things we wanted to see in Dublin.He said no problem , just be back before five. He gave us the easy directions to get out of Dublin onto the N7 and so with the car loaded and locked we took a cab back to Trinity college which was just down the street from our hotel.
