Dublin, Ireland
12 October 2010

House of Lords, 1729


Just a nice house downtown Dublin.

St. Stephen's Green, 1663

This is the "central park" or "hyde park" of Dublin.
Very beautiful park set in the center of the city.


Dublin Fusiliers Arch, 1904, located at the northwest corner of
St. Stephen's Green

This is in front of the grand canal that runs in front of the hotel. And again, more swans.

Trinity College, 1592

This is the cobblestone courtyard of Trinity College.



A placard on the outside of a townhouse. Must be a relative.
Grafton Street, is the main drag "Fifth Ave" for shopping.

Very busy and crowded Grafton Street. The weather was great...high sixties.
Molly Malone Statue. Molly is commemorated in a statue erected to celebrate the city's first millennium in 1987. This statue is known as "The Tart With The Cart", "The Dish With The Fish", "The Trollop With The Scallop", "The Dolly With the Trolley", and "The Flirt in the Skirt". The statue portrays Molly as a busty young woman in seventeenth-century dress. Her low-cut dress and large breasts were justified on the grounds that as "women breastfed publicly in Molly's time, breasts were popped out all over the place."
St Ann's Cathedral, 1720


A local Irishman.
