Footsteps in Dublin, Ireland (Memorial Day weekend, May 29-31, 2010)



Dublin on foot.....
A beautiful, charming city. I found the Irish to be very friendly, warm, funny, helpful and welcoming people.

A visit to the Guinness Storehouse in Dublin.....
(A fascinating experience learning about the history and the brewing process of my favorite beer!!!)

Vegan Dublin......
I ate at some great vegan-friendly places in Dublin
(Cafe Fresh, Cafe Irie, Silk Road Cafe, and others....no problems being a vegan in Dublin)

Latchford Apartments - my accommodation in Dublin.....
Excellent location; very cheap and affordable, comfortable and spacious (bedroom, living room, kitchenette, free WiFi)

Trinity College, Dublin.....
(Saw the "Book of Kells" exhibit; the famous Long Hall and the exhibit currently on display there - "The Irish in India" - fascinating)

Malahide - a small village town on the outskirts of Dublin.....
(A charming little village; was recommended by a few people during my visit)
