Delightfully Dublin
We took in the Police concert last night –it was hilarious to see our fellow concert goers in the crowd of 50,000. Men in suits arm-in-arm swaying to the music and singing at the top of their lungs and a family of four, a son around 12 rocking out with his beer drinking older brother, probably 15, and two hip parents. It was an interesting sight.
After the concert, we hit a few pubs and ended the night with a taste of what was to come as we stopped in an Irish pub and listened to Johnny Cash and Lynyrd Skynyrd.
Today we landed in Dublin, and it was warm and sunny — very unusual for this part of the world. We took a long walk around the city center, through Trinity College and then lingering at the picturesque Saint Stephens Green park. We watched the ducks and little children rolling around gorgeous, bright flowers and the greenest grass I have ever seen. Now its about 10:30 pm and we are off to a corner pub for some dinner. Tomorrow, we’ll travel to Ennis and I learn more about my married namesake!
An amazing sight — Blue skies!!!
