Ferry and Dublin

After a quick 45 minute ride on the subway and another 2 hour ride on the train we reached Holyhead and our ferry to dublin. The ferry ride was very pleasant. The seas behaved and the seating we got was perfect. Here I am enjoying the start of the 'cruise'.





After a rainy walk to our hotel, we headed out for the only logical tourist location in Dublin...Guinness! We missed it on our last trip to Ireland so we weren't going to let that happen again!






This one is for you Christine :)






Good tour but lots of reading,Kyle and I are bigger fans of the locals showing us around and giving us the flare that goes with it :)

After the free pint in the gravity bar we headed for the other staple of Dublin, Temple Bar. We actually go in to the bar this time. We were amazed, last time we couldn't even see the door. We had our own little nook at the bar where I enjoyed a cider with ice (or two) and Kyle a Guinness and a couple Jameson's on ice. Good thing we were walking back to the hotel.







We enjoyed the live local music and then called it a night, great start to the Ireland part of the trip. Heading out to Cork in the morning for more adventures:)
