The rest of our time in Dublin

Monday, March 18, 2013

The amazing thing about Dublin is that once you find your way into city centre, almost everything is walking distance.  We spent a lot of time on our feet, and covered a lot of the city during our short stay!  Laura got a bunch of pictures as we walked around town, so we'll just share those so you can see some of the awesome sites!

Walking the streets of Dublin.

A street performer... he was riding a 10 foot high unicycle!


Walking around the park.

Saint Patrick's Cathedral.


The Guinness Storehouse.

The Old Jameson Distillery.

Crossing one of the many bridges over the River Liffey.
So... looking back at the Dublin bucket list we made, I think we did pretty well!


1. celebrate St. Patrick’s Day
2. visit the Temple Bar area
3. raise a pint at the Guinness storehouse
4. tour The old Jameson distillery (the tour line was WAY too long because of Saint Patrick's Day weekend, but at least we visited!)
5. see Trinity College
6. walking tour of the city
7. attend the ‘paint the city green’ event
8. eat a traditional Irish dish  (bangers and mash! yum!)
9. learn a phrase popular in Ireland ("Erin go bragh", which means "Ireland forever", or even more useful, "pog ma thon", which means "kiss my ass")
10. day trip to the Giant’s Causeway

Ireland was an incredible place to visit.  Next stop: England!

Erin go bragh!
