My partner, B, had to go to Dublin on business with an overnight stay in a hotel. She said I could go as well if I paid the air fare. So Wednesday and Thursday was spent in Dublin for a cost of 45 pounds fare on Ryanair.
This was my fist trip to the Emerald Isle. I got to roam around whilst B had to work. Here are some photos of the sights.

| Parnell's Monument |
 |
| Statue of James Joyce |
 |
| The General Post Office, HQ for the Easter Rising, 1916 |
 |
| Ha'penny Bridge, a toll bridge across the river |

| In Phoenix Park, Wellington's Monument, with a frieze on each face of the base |
 |
| The herd of fallow deer in Phoenix Park, not at all bothered about the tourists |

| Very smart, new tram system |
I have a lot of photos of Magazine Fort in Phoenix Park that I will list separately.
