Day 26
Dun Laoghaire last hot day!
September 9, 2023 in Ireland ⋅ 🌙 19 °C
Mom woke up extra early to meet her new running group while Dad and I stayed home. Eventually Dad went out running in the neighborhood and I went shopping for a bit. Dad met me for lunch by the sea where we also ran into Mom who was getting off the DART. We chatted for a while before walking around town. By the time we got home, it was about 2:40 and we all had a little mid-afternoon crash. We had some leftovers for dinner before settling down to watch Gladiator.Read more
Traveler Great movie! “Am I not entertaining???”

Day 13
Dun Laoghaire Vol. 2!
August 27, 2023 in Ireland ⋅ 🌙 13 °C
We slept in this morning and then spent some time figuring out the coffee + tea machines. Amy and Penny then both showered before going to the farmer’s market and library. While we were out, Ryan did some work and then went running (10 miles!) to check out his soon-to-be campus. Us girls came home to an empty house and decided to get some groceries for our stay. We came back and the three of us chilled for a while before deciding to take some Peloton classes. After that we had dinner and played some cards to finish our evening.Read more
Traveler Holy cats Ryan- 10 miles & your foot didn’t complain? Looks like a perfectly lovely chill day. & Brenden Behan?? There must be a very interesting reason he’s there beside Oscar Wilde…..

Traveler Hmm, foot (and all leg muscles) are complaining — but what do they know?

Day 22
Back to Dun Laoghaire!
September 5, 2023 in Ireland ⋅ 🌙 18 °C
Today was a lovely example of the not-so-glamorous parts of travel. We woke up in Kilkenny and after packing took two buses and a DART train home. Since that occupied about 4 hours of our day, we decided to just enjoy being home. We had all stayed up late and welcomed the excuse to lounge about. In the afternoon, we all showered and my incredible mother went on a journey to buy us groceries for the week. We made guacamole for a snack, then popped some pot pies in the oven for dinner. They were pretty good! Mom and I vegged out watching Gilmore Girls and Dad did some writing to end our long day.Read more
Traveler I’m just catching up on your Kilkenny adventure (camp has like NO signal these days). What a fun trip - lots of country side getting there & castles, quaint streets & shopping! The trip back doesn’t sound quite as adventurous. Hanging at home an excellent way to settle in. So - one quick question about your ocean swim - was the water as cold as I suspect it might be????

Day 23
Dun Laoghaire… Again!
September 6, 2023 in Ireland ⋅ ⛅ 20 °C
We all had some delicious bagels for breakfast and went out for some exercise. Mom and I went down to the West Pier with a few extra stops, and Dad went running to Booterstown. We met just outside the house at the exact same time (ha) and came in for some lunch. The afternoon was very chill before 3 o’clock when Dad left for a Fulbright meeting. Mom and I caught the 4:42 bus (more like 4:55) to the city and walked the rest of the way to my basketball practice. I had a great time and before I knew it, was heading home. Dad made some great spaghetti for dinner and we ended the night with Derry Girls.Read more
Traveler So glad you liked basketball. It will be great for you to experience sports 🏀 while in Ireland 🇮🇪. Looks like a co-ed group 😎Where were the other kids from?

Day 24
Dun Laoghaire… lost count.
September 7, 2023 in Ireland ⋅ ☁️ 19 °C
Today was my first day of 7th grade! We all got ready for the day together before Dad headed to UCD for a meeting and a workshop. Mom and I began some schoolwork; math, science, etc. We stayed at home until 2 o’clock just doing our work. We then left for the library and a stroll around town. We spent a few hours out until meeting Dad home. All of us went out for ice cream, then Mom made some dinner. The night was closed with the season 1 finale of Only Murders In The Building!Read more
Traveler So glad you have that traditional 1st day picture!

Day 15
Dun Laoghaire Vol. 4!
August 29, 2023 in Ireland ⋅ 🌙 13 °C
Today was really fun! We all slept in and then went our separate ways. Ryan headed to campus for a day of meeting people and Penny + Amy headed south along the coastline. Us girls walked the 2 miles to Dalkey where we stopped for lunch in Finnegan’s pub. We walked around for a bit before going to the James Joyce castle where he got the inspiration for the setting of Ulysses. After exploring the tiny museum we went to the library where we read for about 2 hours. The three of us met back at home where we all chilled before Amy + Ryan went for a walk on the pier. Later, dinner was a team effort and we spent our evening playing more cards.Read more

Day 16
Dun Laoghaire Vol. 5!
August 30, 2023 in Ireland ⋅ ☁️ 14 °C
Our day started around 8 o’clock this morning. We got ready for the day and were soon walking either to the bus stop or to the University College of Dublin (guess who was going where). Mom and I were headed to the next house we’ll be staying in. The owners gave us a tour and we all chatted until quarter past 11. After we said our goodbyes, we headed out into the city center for lunch (we got bagels two blocks away at a place called Bretzel). St. Stephen’s park was lovely and we walked around the city for a bit. We then took the bus to the library (ice cream first of course) where we met Dad. I stayed while Mom + Dad went out for a bite and I met them at home. The afternoon to evening was a blur, my parents worked out and we all had some downtime. Eventually, we had dinner and watched Only Murders In The Building.Read more

Day 17
Dun Laoghaire Vol. Too Many!
August 31, 2023 in Ireland ⋅ ☁️ 15 °C
This may have been our rainiest day to date. It started before 7 in the morning when my parents woke up and continued for 13 hours. I woke up around 8:30 and we all lazed about this morning until Mom and I went for a run. We went 1.5 miles (woo!) and walked back to town to get coffee. We came home with chocolates we all loved and the three of us had some more downtime. I headed to Eason for a planner and then the library. Mom met me there while Dad was running. After what I think was 30 minutes, Mom and I went to Tesco for more food. We met Dad at home and spent the afternoon baking a cake/bread hybrid, doing pilates, and eating dinner while watching—take a guess—Derry Girls!Read more

Day 14
Dun Laoghaire Vol. 3!
August 28, 2023 in Ireland ⋅ 🌙 15 °C
The highlight of our day was having coffee with our lovely neighbors, Sara and Briggs from Baltimore! We went to their house at 10. Afterwards, we headed home and Penny + Amy left for the Maritime museum, next to the library. It wasn’t as interesting as the Titanic exhibit, understandably. We then went to the library where we stayed for over an hour, reading and exploring. Then we got some public transit cards, and trekked over to the one wine and liquor store in the area to get some drinks. All the while, Ryan was preparing lectures for the upcoming semester. Together, we exercised, cooked, and chilled in the evening and watched some Derry Girls. We’re hooked.Read more

Day 30
Dun Laoghaire… That’s it!
September 13, 2023 in Ireland ⋅ ☁️ 15 °C
We all woke up nice and early so that we could catch the 9:25 DART to Greystones. Once there, we walked around for a bit and stopped for coffee + food. We walked down to the end of the beach and back (we grossly underestimated how far it was). Noon brought hunger so we stopped at a pub in town for lunch before taking the train back home. At the house, we got a surprise. Since there was a planned power outage, we had to jump our electric gate. I quick changed into my basketball gear and we spent the rest of the afternoon at the library. Mom and I took the bus to the school where I play and before I knew it, practice was over and we were heading home. We stopped to get dinner at Tesco and enjoyed a chill evening.Read more
Traveler What awesome pictures and such great memories! We’re thinking that you’re moving tomorrow to you Dublin apartment? Hope that all goes well! Can’t wait for tomorrow’s installment!
