Welcome to Dublin

Hello all! Last time I showed you some pictures, they were all from the beautiful country of Iceland. Now, it's time to check out some of the very many pictures I took in Dublin, Ireland! More will be up on Facebook in a few days, so keep your eyes peeled if you haven't had your fill. 

These first several images are from various walks we took around the city, showcasing things from Dublin Castle to the stunning bridges that cross the Liffey.

 Christchurch cathedral is one of the oldest in Europe, and was a lot of fun to go see. They even let you take pictures inside!

From there, we went on to Trinity College. We didn't spend a great deal of time here, but we had fun snapping a few photos before continuing on our adventures. Next time, I'll spend a bit more time getting to know this lovely college.

This arch is the entryway to St. Stephen's Green, one of the prettiest places we visited in Dublin. We had it on our list of possible things to do, which was likely to get cut out, but then stopped here for a few minutes during the 1916 tour we went on — and we just had to go back. So beautiful!

Saint Patrick's Cathedral. We did go inside, but we went for the Evensong, where no picture-taking is allowed. Still, the outside is just as pretty as the inside. 

Dublin was a great way to move into Europe. It's a smaller town where people are friendly and will literally stop you on the side of the road just to talk — great fun! If you're going to Europe and you're not sure where to start, Dublin is a great option.

Next up: London!!

p.s. Looks like getting through all my pictures might take a little longer than I thought, so we'll see how long it takes for me to finish posting everything from Europe.
