Friday evening, April 29

This evening, we took a trip back down town. We revisited the Temple Bar area, as you can see by the wild colors below.




More street musicians, these were rockin' out and an old lady (who may have had a bit too much LSD in the 60s), was dancing to their music. I'm just sayin'.......



Erica, Olivia, and Adrienne in Temple Bar
 These are supposed to be the best fish 'n' chips in Dublin. In any case, the restaurant, Leo Burdock's, has been serving traditional fish 'n' chips for nearly 100 years. They were good, but I'm not sure I would call them the best.

 College Green Street

 A Celtic Harpist on the streets of Dublin
 An Uilleann (pronounced "illan) piper. He was fairly young.
 Grafton Street, Dublin's shopping district

A strange fountain near Trinity College. I don't know it's significance, just thought it was unique.












We did the tourist thing, and stopped in a souvenir shop to pick up some stuff for friends and family back home. The weather is wonderful, the Irish people are friendly, and the city of Dublin is very, very international, with many people visiting from other countries, you can hear just about any language in the world. Irish luck and blessings to you all.

  2. I took a photo of that weird fountain, too, when I was there and I have NO IDEA what its significance was either!
