It doesn’t get completely dark here until almost 10 pm which gives ample time to explore the city. We finally grabbed our first real Irish fare and I had my first Irish Guinness at Madigan’s. I know, I know, it’s cliche, but when in Rome…or Dublin.
We visited the Garden of Remembrance, designed by Daithí Hanly and dedicated to the memory of all those who gave their lives in the cause of Irish Freedom.
Just a quick note, people here walk like they drive. To be left of oncoming traffic. I do not. I have walked into more people than I can count while gaping up at the architecture here. You can walk for hours and see the most amazing design and mix of color on buildings throughout the city. I am especially addicted to the window flower boxes and unique lamp posts that are scattered everywhere.
The streets have come alive tonight with live music all over the streets and pouring out of the bars. The people here are so incredibly friendly which works well for this extrovert! We’re signing off to go enjoy the rest of our night!
