I asked the lovely bookstore owner which Irish book I should bring back home with me...perfect!

Where I am staying, again, THE best location, close to all.

The lilac trees on this trip are knocking me out. Trinity College.

Words on Oscar Wilde's monument. Gasped when I read it, I thought Chrissie Hynde wrote it first!

Gnarly! Would love to credit the artist but I couldn't find a marker. Merrion Square.

First full day in Dublin and LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it. So many green spaces, great city planning. Streets and parks are clean and tidy, people friendly. Not gonna lie, I don't hate it that this is an English speaking country, I don't have to try and fake the language like in Belgium or France. Visited Trinity College ( two Oregon maples are prominently planted on campus, seeds were obtained in 1827! ), alumni include Samuel Beckett, Oscar Wilde and Bram Stoker), Book of Kells, Temple Bar District, St. Stephens Green, Merrion Square where Oscar Wilde's monument is, surrounded by a large concentration of Georgian style houses.En savoir plus
