Hello and Farewell to Dublin

Here is TJ outside Quay's Pub and Restaurant in Temple Bar.

We went here upon arrival in Dublin and stopped here for lunch before heading back.

While the Temple Bar is targeted to tourists, we are tourists and enjoyed it very much - especially the late nights at Gogarty's on the second floor where they played traditional Irish music until 2:30AM.

While here in Dublin, we were sure to have many of the Irish dishes like bangers and mash, fish and chips, and of course plenty of pints of Guinness. We also frequented the Dublin McDonald's which had a McCafe inside. It was very nice and the food was markedly better than US franchises.

Dublin was a very nice place to visit. If you come here, be sure to read on on the history of Ireland so you can appreciate everything here.
