Dublin

Grogans (what else would you call a bar)

A view of Dublin from the Gravity Bar


Dublin was a brief but pleasant visit. We only spent one night there but I really enjoyed the city. we stayed with a freind of mine I had worked with at sounds in NZ named Cormac and his wife Caroline who treated us royally (or grandly as the Irish would say). after catching up at their house for a while we toddled down to the Guiness factory and ended up on the Gravity Bar for a surprisingly nice pint of Guiness, and after that headed out to a restaurant for a nice dinner and then on to Grogans Bar (I know, hilarious) for another Guiness and on to The Bernard Shaw(which was unfortunately closing) and wandered down past the river for our first(but nt last of the trip) sighting of rats and back to Carmacs around 12.30am for a solid 5 hours sleep till our next flight. Sigts of note we passed, Dublin Castle and church where St Valentine is buried(how romantic).
