Here are some of my photos of the streets of Dublin, Ireland from our visit in June, 2006.

These photos are from a bus tour of Ireland
that began and ended at Shannon Airport, with hotel stops in Limerick, Galway, Derry, Belfast, Dublin, Waterford, Killarney, and back to Limerick. These pictures represent only a small slice of that trip, the streets of Dublin.

Dublin is an ancient city
and because of its harbor and access to the river Liffey, was highly prized by the Vikings. The Vikings, the Celts and the Normans would not recognize this busy city. The streets are filled with shops, pubs, street entertainers, majestic cathedrals, museums, mementos of violent
confrontations with strangers from Britain and Europe, but in spite of the troubles, the people of Ireland are among the friendliest, most genuine people in the world. To walk down any street in Ireland, especially Dublin and you are met with smile after smile, friendly and sincere hellos, and if you look like you are lost, you will probably find a friendly voice welcoming you and offering directions. You may not always get the directions that you need but you will enjoy the conversation anyway.

There are thousands of photos that have been taken of Dublin and this is only a sample of the few that we took this summer. These represent only some of the fascinating sites and people that you will chance to meet when you visit this lovely green land.
