...Where the girls are so pretty,
I first set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone,
As she wheeled her wheel-barrow,
Through the streets broad and narrow,
Crying "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh!"
We've just come back from an awesome few days in Dublin - as well as eating, drinking and generally having a good time we sought out Molly Malone's statue (a tourist must), visited the Guinness Storehouse (again, a tourist must, with fantastic views of the city at the top), explored Trinity College, went to see a fantastic Abbey Theatre production of Sean O'Casey's 'The Plough and the Stars', visited the Dublin Writers Museum (I had no idea Dublin had produced so many), sampled Michelin starred gourmet deliciousness at Chapter One restaurant (thoroughly recommend to anyone going anywhere near Dublin), ambled for miles along the Liffey, admired the grand houses on the streets around Parnell Square and took a few pints of the black stuff in some of Dublin's cosy back street pubs.
I, of course, took a few snaps - enjoy.
