My Dublin Dalliance: Day 3

1/11/2014

The last day of my holiday in Ireland started with a trip to Howth (rhymes with both), a small fishing and yachting port on the north side of Dublin Bay. 

Although you might not expect it, Howth actually quite a few well-known residents. Among them actress Saoirse Ronan and U2 drummer Larry Mullen. (Unfortunately, I didn't see either of them :-( )

We heard that there was a walking path to Baily Lighthouse, just outside of Howth with beautiful views over the shore, so we thought that would be a nice morning work out.

Well, that made me feel MUCH safer...
But they didn't lie about the view!

Wouldn't you want to live in that house (minus the risk of plummeting into sea after every storm)?!

We had to return the car by midday, so in the afternoon I visited the National Museum of Archaeology in Dublin. I LOVE history and archaeology, so it was an afternoon well spent. It wasn't a very large museum like the British Museum or the Met, but it had quite a nice collection of artefacts from the Bronze Age and the Iron Age, especially an amazing collection of gold jewellery from those eras.

The end of the trip to Ireland was marked by celebrating New Year’s at the official Countdown Concert in front of Trinity College, which was a lot of fun! Among the artists performing were the Sugababes and Madness, so I had a really great time! (I already shared pictures from that concert in my previous post about my New Year's resolutions.)

All in all, I would definitely recommend visiting Ireland, and Dublin in particular, to anyone who loves history and nature!
