I Ryanned over to Dublin just before Christmas to visit a very dear Irish friend that I’d met some years ago in Russia. What a wonderful city. Within hours I was shamefully regretting that I’d never visited earlier and wished I had more time to explore. That said, within minutes I was on the road to Kilbeggan and being driven through some of the worst rain I’d ever experienced, to savour some traditionally produced Whisky at the Lockes Distillery. (Note that there’s no ‘e’ in Whisky since the Irish invented it and the Scots rebranded it Whiskey). I can’t remember much of the journey home but I did have a very comfortable sleep back at the Portmarnock Golf Club, and no, I don’t play golf.
If you’ve never been to Dublin and imagine it to be quite cold, wet and windy during late November then you’re almost right. Hold that thought and then treble it. I’m no Greek hero of the odysseying type, but with a throbbing head and not much sleep I went of to discover why Dublin is a renowned centre of culture and the source of the Craic. But not before a couple of Espresso Dopio’s to help summon up some energy.
Well, to wring out a damp story and cut it short, it rained rather a lot. However, I did manage to cover an impressive amount of Dublin’s sights, museums, gallery’s, bars and coffee shops before meeting up later for another night of the beverage that’s “Really good for you” and a promise to return.
Here’s a moist selection that I’ve dried out for you . . .
