June 27 Day 841: Dublin’s Fair City

Posted byJenny QuinnPosted inexploration, travelTags:,

It’s was time to deal with dirty clothes, so we packed the duffle bag and found the Temple Bar Laundry. After three hours and a lovely walk around town, we had fresh and folded clothes ready to travel to our next destination. (Plus clean masks and compression socks.)

I will share a few sights along the quay:

Ha’penny bridge
At Ireland’s oldest pub, the Brazen Head.
Inside the Brazen Head
St Audoen’s
Here they be Vikings—not ducks.
Important message for those of us that drive on the other side.
St. Michael’s

Lunch was a steaming pot full of mussels— not too far from the statue of Molly Malone. Seemed appropriate.

We’ve made the most of our unexpected layover. Fingers crossed that we finally get to Amsterdam tomorrow.
