Best Laid Plans and all That Rubbish
I slept like the dead and woke up nice and early to get a start to the day. The plan for today was to head out to Kildare to see the Irish National Stud and then down to Powerscourt and the Japanese gardens...I'm sure you all know what they say about best laid plans. I made it to neither. I arrived in Dublin after a great home cooked breakfast …
Oy Vey!/Bloody Hell!
So, the past 24 hours was interesting, to say the least. On Friday we went to the Sagrada Familia, Casa Mila, Block of Discord, Park Guell, Magic Fountain, and Barceloneta. The Sagrada Familia was breathe-taking... in more ways than one. The building was beautiful and intricate and we were able to ride the elevator all the way to the top (i mean …
Taking the path less traveled...

“ Great, economical choice near Dublin ”
Reviewed Sep 11, 2012
Sean saved my bacon by having a. Nicely appointed room available for €40/night! The room included a nice home cooked breakfast and en suite bath. Howth is just a short jaunt from Dublin and a very picturesque place to nest for seeing the city.
