Ireland

We were back home in Bratislava Wednesday night and left again on Friday afternoon for Dublin, Ireland.


Looking west toward the Samuel Beckett Bridge on The River Liffey.













Thug Life at
Custom House Quay on The Liffey River.











On the Sean O'Cassey Bridge looking west.















Alexandra looking at Oscar Wilde statue in St Stephen's Green.









Bedford Row, Temple Bar area, Dublin.
















Street art in Temple Bar area.














There are many, many, many great pubs in Dublin. This one happens to be The Auld Dubliner. 24 Temple Bar, Dublin. We didn't go in as this was taken early Sunday morning, they were still washing down the street from the night before.









A Guinness a day is good for you, a little whisky and some Baily's Irish Cream also taste good.











Limerick Ireland, from our hotel room. Looking at the River Shannon and bridges.












The poor economic state of the country has made the real estate market open up.

Cliffs of Moher, County Clare, Ireland voted one of the New 7 Wonders of the World.

The Cliffs of Moher are 710 feet above the sea at the highest point. Behind me to the west are Newfoundland and Labrador.
