In Dublin's Fair City




Yes, we are travelling again. This time we start off with a road trip around the Emerald Isle. We arrived in Dublin around 8.00am local time on Tuesday.


 

After picking up our hire car from the Airport we made our way into the city and visited Dublinia where learned about the Viking and medieval origins of Dublin. Dublinia is located in buildings attached to Christchurch Cathedral, so we had a quick squiz in the cathedral before roaming the streets of old Dublin. Somehow, we managed to stumble into a bar in Temple Bar and listened to a performer Sweet Molly Malone.  Then it was more rambling which included stumbling upon the said sweet Molly Malone and Dublin Castle.



On Wednesday we again headed into the city, this time via bus as there was a bus stop out the front of our AirBnB in the suburbs. We spent most of time at the Emigration Museum (EPIC). In the evening we enjoyed a meal at the local pub: The Cock and Bull.

Today we will be heading off into countryside.
