Great scenes.
It was a remarkable week for Team Ireland at the Special Olympics World Summer Games in Los Angeles.
The athletes returned home to Dublin Airport this morning with 82 medals in total, a phenomenal return.
Here’s a sample of what the atmosphere was like when our heroes touched down a little earlier.
