Dublin

After a day spent closeted up in the motorhome sheltering from hurricane winds and rain, we were keen get out and see a little of Dublin this morning. We had hoped to get into the city yesterday but all bus services and most city attractions were closed down because of the hurricane. This morning we marveled at the Dublin Spire (120 meter high stainless steel tower in the city centre), wandered around both the newer fashionable streets on the left bank of the river and the old medieval area on the right bank and we topped it off with lunch at Ireland’s oldest pub, the Brazen Head.

Then we headed back to the motorhome and across Ireland to Galway to resume our trip up the  Atlantic coast. Unfortunately the hurricane cost us 2 days of sightseeing, but we’ll have to make the most of our last 2 days before we head back to Wales.
