AUGUST 23 – 25 – DUBLIN
• Catching the ferry from Holyhead to Dublin Port is a lovely way to arrive on the Emerald Isle! From arrival in customs, the people are friendly (that’s rare) and even though we’re only staying for 2 weeks, they were quick to point out we are welcome for 3 months (everything is different in Ireland)!
• Dublin is a bustling city and we checked out the Guinness Factory (an absolute must) where Arthur Guinness began marking ‘the black stuff’ by signing a 9000 year lease on the premises. Smart man!
• Enjoyed Grafton Street, Georges Street, Temple Bar and meeting lots of lovely locals.
• I had a blast being out in a bar having a drink with Marc Connolly - a lovely local nurse who made me laugh so hard, I nearly cried. Everyone seems to love a laugh and enjoy a great joke (and of course plenty of booze)!
